5.0 out of 5 stars
A fascinating book for collectors,
By
This review is from: Combs and Hair Accessories (Antique Pocket Guide) (Paperback)
Written from the point of view of the collector this book gives an excellent historical review of combs and hair ornaments of all types and styles. Not only precious stone and diamond items are covered but those made from more humble and available materials like turtle-shell, ivory, coral and gilt metal. The author goes into a great deal of detail about social facts, history and etiquette which lay behind the development of different styles of ornaments. There is also information on collecting and looking after these ornaments.
