Furniture Designer Max Enrich Doesn’t Use His Massive Scissor Collection for What You Think
The 80-some specialized pairs he’s sourced from secondhand markets and peers in the design world provide a well of inspiration.
I don’t know how I ended up collecting so many scissors, but I know where it started. I remember going to places like the dentist and the car mechanic as a kid and being impressed with the ones they used. Later, going to workshops to develop my practice as a furniture designer, I saw a lot of craftspeople using the kind of scissors seamstresses use. When I lived in London ten years ago, I started looking for a pair like that to start a collection, and my wife bought one for me as a present.
