Groetsch Wooden Dress Comb, Cherry Wood

A hand-made hardwood 18cm dress comb from the Groetsch family of Enzendorf, Germany. Crafted from local cherry timber, a smooth grained, tight pored wood known for its hard and even texture, on the original 150 year old cutting machines, with teeth that are tapered, rounded at tip and base, polished on both interstitial and external faces, and fixed to a laterally-grained back for flexible strength and support. Split between fine and broad fairly deep teeth, this satisfyingly large comb is intended for the styling and untangling of longer thicker hair.
