Balinese hair combs trace their roots to centuries-old traditions, where they served both decorative and symbolic purposes. Hand-carved from hardwood or occasionally from horn or tortoiseshell, these combs often feature stylised figures, animal motifs, or geometric patterns meaningful in Balinese culture. This comb is carved from wood and features a stylized human face atop the handle. Historically these combs were practical items but also expressions of social status, personal beauty, and mythological beliefs.
