An Art Deco Celluloid Hair Comb in a beautiful light amber, faint tortoiseshell tone, richly adorned with sparkling Citrine Rhinestones. The translucent amber celluloid body features an elegant oval crest, with the perimeter and four sweeping vertical curved rays fully encrusted in warm Citrine stones. Between each pair of curved rays is a finely detailed filigree design of flowing tendrils and leaves, creating a striking balance of geometry and ornament typical of the Art Deco period. The three lower forks curve gently to secure into the hair with ease. All rhinestones appear original, with subtle variations in tone consistent with age, enhancing its character and period charm. An exceptional presentation piece, with no damage to the celluloid or stones. Dimensions approx.: overall length 16.4cm maximum x 7cm wide maximum; forks 7cm long; width 3cm tapering to 2.5cm across the points; total mass 25.65gm. Circa 1920s.
