1810 Cut Steel Comb

I bought this on ebay Germany (thanks, Julia!) It's a little comb (and it is small) made of horn and cut steel. I adore the crescent moon/arrow motif and it has a little hinge! The comb dates to 1810. I think I got it for a good price too.

Here are a few of the auction pics:

    It's GORGEOUS! I love it. It looks wee tiny, but it's so adorably Dianic.
