The Burgon and Ball Japanese Pruning Scissors are a celebration of timeless design and meticulous craftsmanship. Inspired by centuries of Japanese horticultural tradition, these scissors combine fine precision with modern durability to create an exceptional tool for detailed pruning and plant styling.
The Japanese art of bonsai has long demanded accuracy, balance and an understanding of natural form. These pruning scissors have been crafted with that same attention to detail. The razor sharp blades are made from high carbon steel, a material chosen for its strength and ability to maintain an exceptionally fine cutting edge. With proper care, these blades will stay sharp through years of use, making every cut clean and effortless.
The slim, pointed tips allow you to reach and isolate individual stems with remarkable control. Whether you are maintaining bonsai, shaping houseplants, trimming herbs or working with floral arrangements, these scissors provide the perfect combination of reach and accuracy. The cutting action feels smooth and deliberate, giving you confidence in every snip.
Designed with comfort in mind, the scissors feature offset handles that fit naturally in the hand. The ergonomic shape offers excellent balance and control, allowing long periods of use without strain. The combination of dark and light handles is both practical and stylish, ensuring these scissors are easy to spot among your gardening tools.
These pruning scissors are also perfect for floristry and ikebana, the Japanese art of floral design. Their fine tips make them invaluable for cutting stems precisely and styling arrangements with professional accuracy. Lightweight yet sturdy, they are an essential tool for anyone who values refinement and control in their plant care routine.
As part of Burgon and Ball’s specialist collection for houseplants and indoor gardening, these scissors pair beautifully with the Orchid Snips and Houseplant Pruner to complete your precision toolkit.
Elegant, efficient and beautifully balanced, the Burgon and Ball Japanese Pruning Scissors combine the artistry of traditional Japanese design with the dependability of British toolmaking excellence.
