According to HLT: The basic design and construction of today's scissors dates back to the sixteenth century when the spring scissors were gradually replaced. Beautiful scissors were exported throughout Europe from manufacturing towns in Italy. They were well known for quality of work-manship. Again there is reference to the Eastern influence that established strong centers of steel manufacturing in Italy and Spain during the Moors' occupation of these countries. Jewelers made beautiful scissors for those who were wealthy and the ruling class.
Utilitarian scissors made of brass and iron were used by the working class. Since the Victorian period, it is not uncommon for the blades to be manufactured in Germany or England and the handles added by the manufacturers in a different country. Scissors and other sewing items have been produced in miniature as charms, and game pieces, and as toys for dolls and young girls.
