roman dolphin crest 1st 3rd century bronze Alle Viking sieraden 15 to 18 cmThis comb shows in relief two dolphins with upward pointing tails, which together form the handle. The design is based on a Roman find dating between the 1st and 3rd centuries AD.

A graceful comb for those who want to portray Roman culture.
