Combs
More combs coming soon!
But they take a little time… Every comb is cut and refinished by hand; every tooth is refinished by filing and with knives to give you an authentic boxwood comb. They are then treated with linseed oil and/or beeswax and (usually) supplied with their own individually made leather pouch.
Unless specified, combs are suitable for any period from Roman to English Civil War.
