vintage tailors shears

If you are in to restoring old sewing equipment, you may be interested in these. I know that they are from the home of my husbands old Italian grandmother who has been gone for some time now.
When she came to this country she had to do piece work for the garment business and these were essential items.
They need restoring, for sure.

There are a pair of heavy shears and pair of very long scissors. Both of them are about 12" long.
They have got to be at least around 100 years old. I always intended to restore them, but I know that is not going to happen. Maybe someone else can get some pleasure from bringing them back to life.
If not adopted, I have no recourse but to put them into the metal recycling at the transfer station.

I need for them to be gone by Sunday evening, but I can make some exceptions.
