3D model of a metal curry comb on a wooden turned handle with decorative bending and a metal loop at the top. The flared arms attached to the surface of the comb has fine teeth at one edge and coarser teeth at the other end. Added to Timespan's collection in 1990. A collaborative project between Open Virtual Worlds, a research team within the School of Computer Science, University of St Andrews and Timespan Museum. 3D digitisation was done by Catherine Cassidy and Iain Oliver with archaeological assistance provided by Jacquie Aitken. Digitisation funded by the EU Northern Periphery and Arctic Programme 2014-2020 through the “Connected Culture and Natural Heritage in a Northern Environment” (CINE) project.
