Antique Hair Comb - Beautiful Victorian Horn and PasteThis is a lovely piece of Victorian hair jewellery, likely made of pressed horn. It is a large piece at 4. 5 inches long and has two prongs which lead down from an open loop studded with attractive and sparkling paste stones, all in place and with some surface wear. It is perfect for a something old or wedding gift and is in lovely antique condition. As a vintage or antique item, it will show signs of age and patina. This is a lovely very old piece.
