The Silk Comb
Description
Hand-carved in black sandalwood and accentuated with a pure silk tassel, The Silk Comb is made to honor the intimacy of ritual and care. Meant to serve as a functional object, it intends to be carried but also appreciated on a vanity top or other tables and consoles.
Each comb is locally carved by hand, where the natural grain of the sandalwood is preserved, allowing it to carry a smooth surface and scent. The organic finish of this material prevents static and promotes healthy hair growth. Our custom made tassel is woven from pure, unbleached silk. It is created in Kalasin, Thailand, a region known for its communities of women artisans whose practice holds centuries of devotion, patience, precision, and beauty, woven into every thread of silk. Through this collaboration, Borne continues its commitment to supporting ethical craftsmanship, creating beauty that is both meaningful and enduring.
Engraved initials on the opposite side of the comb are offered complimentary to each order.
