Vintage Dutch Silver Ribbon Nips
A rare little tool with a lot of charm. These Dutch silver ribbon nips, shaped like a stork nestled among flowers, were once a sewing-room staple — used to snip ribbon or thread with precision. Today, they’re as lovely displayed on a desk or vanity as they are in action, bringing a touch of whimsy (and Dutch history) to everyday tasks.
