Fiskars Classic scissors

Fiskars is one of the oldest companies in the Western world, founded in 1649 in the village of Fiskars, Finland. The brand gained global recognition for its iconic orange-handled scissors, which were first introduced in 1967 and have since become a design classic. While Fiskars produces a wide range of gardening and crafting tools globally, their premium classic scissors are still famously manufactured at their factory in Billnäs, Finland.

Today, Fiskars Group is a publicly traded Finnish company that manages a portfolio of lifestyle brands. The company maintains a strong commitment to quality and ergonomic design, a legacy that began centuries ago as an ironworks. The orange color of the handles, which has become the brand's signature, was originally a byproduct of a designer's preference during the prototyping phase and has remained unchanged for decades.
