Record Type: concept
dressmaker's shears (fabric shears, fabric cutters, ... Furnishings and Equipment (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Hand-held tools comprising two long, sharp stainless steel blades, one of which is bent at an angle and one of which is rounded, mounted to two different-sized finger rings. These tools are specifically designed to cut long swaths of fabric, oftentimes straight from the bolt; they are most often utilized to craft dresses or other types of clothing. The bent-angle blade, which is controlled by the user's thumb, helps to keep the fabric flat on the cutting surface for more precise cuts.
