Stunning antique 19th century Victorian era hair ornament comb / tiara, decorated with 29 natural coral beads framing three prong set paste stones. Gorgeous, rich salmon coloring to the coral. Beautifully set in a gilt metal frame, topped by silvered decorative edge. Arranged in a tiara like form. Attached to a natural horn two prong hair comb. Pivoting hinge allowing it to be worn anywhere within the coiffure--at the back, side, or even the front as a lovely tiara or set among upswept curls. The hairstyles of the period were typically upswept with twists placed into a knot and finished with a hair comb such as this. Beautiful to wear or display, an elegant accessory to collect!
