Description: It is a double side comb for multipurpose use and has a long and wide gap between the teeth of the comb, whereas the opposite side is having short teeth of the comb used by the Apatani tribe people. The dorsal side is flat in nature and has a bruised part just below the center. These kinds of objects generally have utilitarian value. The objects are ideal for daily use and do not have that much importance on the export market. This comb is roughly designed, and no finishing is observed in the carved out regions.
