This is a satsuma comb made by a skilled comb craftsman, with each tooth carefully ground.
It's portable and can be used to tidy up messy hair on the go, looking adorable and stylish.
Combs were considered talismans in ancient times, and the "tsuge comb" was already mentioned in the Manyoshu during the Nara period, cherished as a tool in people's daily lives and used continuously since ancient times.
Today, combs are made from various materials, but none seem to possess the charm and natural care for hair that a Japanese boxwood comb does.
The qualities of the boxwood and the craftsmanship and spirit of the artisans who dedicate themselves to comb-making speak to the hair; this is what can be called a "boxwood comb."
