Comb

Collected by the donor in 1976-1980, when she and her husband were living in Bougainville, where her husband worked as a mining engineer; some of the pieces were gifted to them.

Bamboo comb. The body is rectangular with a row of eleven long cutout teeth and a handle that tapers to a blunt tip. The comb itself has a natural overall curve due to the shape of the bamboo.
