Antique Victorian Era Mantilla Comb of Carved Faux Tortoise Shell. The comb is superbly crafted with an intricate pierced design of a delicate arch and floral framework set with amber and sapphire colored stones.

This is a beautiful 19th century ladies accessory, in overall excellent condition with some light general wear commensurate with age and normal use. There is one missing stone at top outer edge. In addition the prong on the right has been mended from a break. This can best be seen in the sixth picture. The prong is well set and intact although the repair is definitely there.

Measures nearly 6 1/2" in length with the decorative crown measuring 4" tall and 3 1/2" wide.

There are additional antique and vintage accessories in the Accessories Studio Category.

There are also other antique and vintage costume and plastic jewelry (bakelite, lucite, celluloid, and figurals), collectibles, books, art, glass, china, kitchen, home decor, and retro pieces in the store.

I package all items with the utmost of care, but out of respect for our planet, I may use reuse recycable packaging materials.
