Product description
This small crest in the shape of a stylized horse is modeled after a find from a Celtic cremation grave in Frankfurt-Praunheim, dating to around 100 BC. Horse-shaped combs are known from several Celtic sites and were probably used not only as a utensil for hair or beard care, but also as a personal tool. amulet or status symbol.
The design was carried out in bronze, in the same style as the original Latène finds from the 3rd to 1st century BC. The stylized horse's body flows directly into a short comb with fine teeth. Thanks to the eye at the top, you can also wear the comb on a cord as a pendant around your neck.
An attractive accessory for those who delve into Celtic culture, and at the same time a beautiful addition to a reenactment outfit from the late Iron Age. The horse motif underlines the special status that the horse occupied in Celtic society.
