Vintage CIDAL electric scissors white retro old model with box

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

This lot includes a pair of CIDAL electric scissors, presented in their original box. The object, elongated and ergonomic in shape, features a smooth, glossy white finish. On the visible side, the inscription "Ciseaux Electriques" (Electric Scissors) in black letters is clearly visible, as is the "CIDAL" logo on a dark disc, both easily readable. The head of the scissors has two straight blades, held by visible screws, typical of older electric models.

The original white cardboard box features a schematic illustration of the product and reiterates the mentions "Ciseaux Electriques" and "CIDAL". A printed reference "2888/84371-1" appears on the visible side of the box. A yellow adhesive, probably original, is also present on the packaging. The overall presentation evokes a functional and uncluttered design, characteristic of household appliances from past decades.

The object is still in transparent plastic packaging, which suggests it has not been used or has been carefully preserved. The white finish of the handle contrasts with the metallic color of the screws and blades. No cables or additional accessories are visible on this side.

The set, with its illustrated box and retro appearance, is aimed at those looking for an old tool, both decorative and utilitarian, typical of CIDAL productions from the mid to late 20th century. The general style, typography, and graphics of the box likely place this model between the 1960s and 1980s.
