The handles feature shaped grips for comfort and are crafted in FSC®-certified ash, a lightweight option. A beautiful brass plaque on one handle shaft carries the Sophie Conran for Burgon & Ball maker’s mark for a distinctive touch. For peace of mind, this hedge shear carries a ten-year guarantee.

SECATEURS:  

One thing about me is that I have been known to abandon my tools in the garden as I rush off to do something else, leaving them at the mercy of the elements. My secateurs are made from a special stainless steel, making them outstanding for cutting as well as being rust-free. They are smaller than the usual secateurs so fit perfectly in my hand, pocket and even my handbag.

A simple brass lock keeps the blades safely closed when not in use. 20cm long

Hand crafted, every pair is unique in finish, they are not mass produced and machine polished.
