Description
The Niwaki Rattan Garden Snips are finely balanced tools designed for delicate, precise cutting. Crafted from drop forged carbon steel, they are well suited to flowers, house plants, bonsai, and other detailed pruning tasks.
Slender blades allow clean access in tight or crowded areas, helping you cut accurately without disturbing surrounding stems. The handles are hand wrapped with wisteria rattan, offering a comfortable grip and a tactile finish. A soft spring action and simple leather catch make them easy to use for extended periods.
Lightweight, sharp, and controlled, these snips are practical garden tools that also sit comfortably in a home studio or office setting.

Masterfully forged Japanese garden tools for every gardener’s craft.
Inspired by a deep curiosity for Japan's rich gardening tradition, Jake Hobson, founder of Niwaki, spent time in rural Osaka along with his wife Keiko learning the art of tree training, pruning and rootballing where his love for the craft and tools used evolved. Inspired by the tripod ladder he used in Japan, Jake shipped a few to the UK to use, here the business began. The name Niwaki, meaning 'garden trees,' reflects the brand's dedication to creating beautifully crafted tools for every garden, each made from durable materials expertly forged by artisans across Japan. What everyone starts to appreciate is that although these things are all Japanese, they work just as well in western gardens, and on a whole range of plants.
When Jake and Keiko are not hiding out down in Dorset UK, or galavanting around the country in their Keswick green 130 Defender's, they are putting together this range of good stuff for us garden lovers for daily use, that they are proud of.
