Description: Ca. 1st - 3rd Century A.D. Double-sided toilet comb, incomplete except for a few teeth. Apparently made from a single sheet of bone with hand-cut teeth spaced at approximately 0.2cm. intervals.Size: 4-1/2 inches in lenght. 2-1/4 inches in height. The ends have unworked margins and diagonal flutes created by decreasing the length of the teeth. The teeth are of unequal length, though this is probably not due to wear. A pair of uneven strengthening bars, with convex tops, run along the centre of the comb, but stop short of its ends and are held in place by four iron rivets. They are scarred where the teeth were cut. From a private New York collection. Posted with eBay Mobile
