Fiskars x Iittala scissors are adorned with an alluring Taika pattern depicting owls hooting in an enchanted forest. Illustrated by Klaus Haapaniemi, known for his distinctive style, the rich and compelling motif is based on the folklore of the designer's native Finland as well as old Slavic fairytales.
The right-handed universal scissors are made in Finland and carefully hand-tested to ensure their legendary cutting performance.
