• Qajar comb with figures (5)
  • Asia

  • Width : 3 3/4 inch
  • Height : 5 3/8 inch

  • Very interesting comb returning us to the Qajar time: its uses, costumes and symbols. On one side, in the middle of a floral and birds background, a man is sat, holding a carafe of wine (drinking wine was accepted at the Court). On the other side, a land scene represents the autumn season. All around are birds and deers. The wood is nicely painted with some relief and then lacquered. Formerly Kajetan Fiedorowicz collection.
