The shears are perfect for cutting meat, herbs and many other foods. After use you can easily take them apart for easy washing. Dimensions 11 x 4 x 0.3 in. Recommended hand washing due to silver plated ring which is a precious metal. Dishwasher safe on low temperature with detergents which are free of alcohol, perfumes and are non abrasive. Price difference depending on the colour - that's because the higher priced colours arrived from Italy after the new tariffs regulation. We could increase all colours' prices however we want to be fair to our customers and sell them in the lower price as we received them in the lower price.
