Ideal to shine long hair, The Rational- The Eldest comb restores magnificence. With its angles and bevels, this exclusive comb of the Officine will masterfully coax the longest hair, and sculpt the hairstyle. Its teeth run along the comb from wide to fine spacing to make disentangling smoother.
This comb fits perfectly in the hand and is available in three shades: tortoiseshell, ivory and amber yellow. Large in size, it still easily slips into a bag. Its slightly rounded geometric lines make it one of the most popular combs among lovers of beautiful things, curiosities and other aesthetes.
This comb is handcrafted in Switzerland by one of the last manufacturers in Europe. Cut from a block of very high quality acetate, it is shaped, sculpted and then polished. The teeth and notches are especially arranged so as not to injure the hair. A plant fibre, the acetate reveals a unique pattern specific to each comb.
This luxurious object is stored in our famous velvet pouches to be transported safely.
This is undoubtedly an exercise resulting from the principles of goldsmithing. Twelve steps are necessary to manufacture each comb of the Officine Universelle Buly. The process begins with the cutting of acetate according to the template of the chosen model. The shaping then consists of adjusting the acetate to the design of the comb. Polishing and dulling are then necessary steps to round off the angles and sharpen the teeth. The manufacture of the comb continues with the meticulous making of the teeth: the acetate is sawed to draw the teeth that are then faceted.
Ultimate beauty treatment: the sanding smoothes the surface and rounds the tips of the teeth. Lastly, the comb is brushed.
The steam bath gives shine and the polishing carried out by the expert hands of the craftsman complete this high quality product of great merit.
Softness and dexterity are the key words of a successful disentangling operation: it is unnecessary to force your way or to comb too frankly.
In order to guarantee the integrity of acetate-made products, a particularly sensitive material, these products should not be exposed to strong sources of heat and humidity. Contact with chemical substances should also be avoided.
This comb can be cleaned with a cloth and a little water.
A little trick known to all eyewear manufacturers, being a natural fibre, acetate must be hydrated twice a year with a rich texture such as shea or coconut butter.
