The earliest known scissors appeared in Mesopotamia 3,000 to 4,000 years ago.
These were of the 'spring scissor' type comprising two bronze blades connected at the handles by a thin, flexible strip of curved bronze which served to hold the blades in alignment, to allow them to be squeezed together, and to pull them apart when released.
Spring scissors continued to be used in Europe until the 16th century.
However, pivoted scissors of bronze or iron, in which the blades were pivoted at a point between the tips and the handles, the direct ancestor of modern scissors, were invented by the Romans around 100 AD.
They entered common use in not only ancient Rome, but also China, Japan, and Korea, and the idea is still used in almost all modern scissors.
With love to you and thank you for ALL your faves and comments, M, (* _ *)

Enjoying the user experience of this lens with the T/S functionality. Still getting used to it and loving the results. One thing to remind myself is not to go crazy on the T/S functionality, it can be overdone. Using this lens at 0/0 setting provides very good imagery, sharp! The 45mm focal length offers a great perspective.
View other shots taken with this lens here. Small but a growing collection.

I love the way that macro can make you look more closely at the everyday and ordinary! Here it's a humble pair of scissors I've had for years!

Scissors on my dining room table in the late afternoon.
This is what can happen if you accidentally leave a pair of brass colored scissors face down on a wet spot on a leather colored place mat. My wife pointed it out to me, and I thought it was worthy of exploitation.
Lighting stuff: Placed on a white poster board against a wall and lit with a pair of Yongnuo strobes in identical 24 inch soft boxes placed on either side of the mat, pointing at the center at a 45 degree angle. I was going for flat, balanced lighting on this one. The strobes, in manual mode, were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
LIt by the setting sun, this is my entry for today's topic in Our Daily Challenge Group: Rock Paper Scissors.
Thought I would do a "pretty" take on the topic.

These are probably my most practical mementos, which bring back memories every time I use them. When I started secondary school (at age 11, so a very long time ago!) parents were given a list of things that they should provide. For needlework lessons, I needed both large & small scissors. I remember going shopping on a Saturday with both my parents & visiting a haberdashery shop to choose the scissors. They were probably very expensive at the time - but amazing value as they have been in use ever since.
