Faux-Tortoise Shell Hair Comb Victorian |
|
| Back | Victorian faux tortoise shell comb was very popular in the early-to-mid 19th century. The advantage of both the tortoise shell and horn was that they could be made soft and moldable by heat. As they cooled, they would harden and retain their shape. This lovely faux-tortoise shell antique comb measures 4-1/2" in length and 3-1/2" in width. What a rare and wonderful piece of history, with a Pat. March 19 1895. |
