Antique hair comb with silver top and tortoiseshell-style body

Elegant antique hair comb featuring a decorative silver top mount and a body made of tortoiseshell-style material. The silver mount is finely decorated with ornamental scroll and floral motifs, giving the piece a refined and classic appearance.
Hair combs like this were traditionally used as ladies’ dressing table accessories and hair ornaments, particularly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Today they are appreciated as collectible items or decorative vanity pieces.
