Combs are among the oldest tools found by archeologists, the earliest ones were discovered in Persian settlements from 5000 years ago. This comb gives me a 1950's Hong Kong and butterscotch vibe at the same time. What is it with Princesses' and combs? Have you read the story of "Petronella"? In the 1970's book version she used a comb much like this to ditch a suitor. Throwing down the comb it turned into a dense forest but his head then turned into an axe and he cut through the forest to get to her. Trippy...I love that trick but I don't think it's worth trying on some drunk guys in the streets of New York, forests don't grow in sidewalks you know.
