Green Celluloid Overlay Rhinestone Hair Comb
Ref: DE-1208-010
Another pretty comb made by the celluloid overlay process, this time with a glossy upper shell of sage green applied over a pale apple juice colour. The latter shows on the edges of the design and the tips of the tines. The scalloped radiating panels, which resemble leaves, are accentuated by emerald green rhinestones.
This is a very wearable hair comb of a more modest size favoured by women who did not wish to wear the huge mantilla like ornaments of the mid 1920s.
The final picture is taken from an advertisement in a British magazine of 1923 and shows a model with a large Spanish style comb worn in asymmetric fashion.
Size: 3¼ x 5 ins; (approx 8 x 12.5 cms)
£35.00
