Fossil Ivory Scissor Fob


We usually sell our scissor fobs on Ebay, but we thought we'd try a couple out in our Etsy.com shop. This 4 1/2 inch length scissor fob is an OOAK (one of a kind) piece! Dave has hand carved the acorn and Oak leaf from fossil ivory and Jo put it together with cat's eye, Swarovski crystals and gold tone beads. A gold tone clasp will securely fasten your fob onto your scissors. The scissors shown in the photo are for display purposes only.
