I am herb shears. I like being able to tell people that I helped cut the herbs that spiced up their dishes. From planting a seed to watching it grow… there’s nothing else like it. The next time you need help adding rosemary to your soup, you know who to call! I love being part of the process.
Curator's Notes
Besides the beautiful texture and finish, these small shears were designed as the perfect tool for an herb garden. The cutting motion is relatively effortless and requires little pressure, while the sharp thin blades makes it easy to cut herbs and keep the plant healthy afterwards. To maximize your home herbs, remember never to pluck the leaves and to snip as close as possible to the small bunch of leaves under the top set.
