Comb Pendant

$5.00$6.00

Copied from one of many tiny medieval comb pendants, and of characteristic late medieval form. The openwork represents the fancy carving and painting on the more ornate combs of the period. The Netherlandish original was found in Rotterdam and is dated 1375-1425.

This pendant is offered in four versions. You can have it with a pewter, copper, or brass sheet for the backing – or you can buy it with no backing and put in a paper, parchment, or cloth backing of your own choice. If you choose the DIY option we include a paper pattern to copy.

Besides this nice comb we have two naughty ones, one more discreet than the other. Check them out if you are feeling saucy!
