Interesting...I have 4 different pairs of Gingher scissors and I just went and checked all of them. 3 of the 4 are made in Italy but my 8" shears says Mexico!?
The 3 from Italy are smaller. (4" blade, buttonhole, applique) All 4 pairs were bought new within the last 2 years and I think they may have all come from Joann's. (The buttonhole scissors may have come from Amazon but I'm positive about the other 3)
They all are very nice scissors and I have no complaints, it's just interesting that I have a pair from Mexico. I had no idea!
