This comb sculpture is made of responsibly sourced Scottish red deer antler and a Neolithic macehead-style bead made of Ashford Black Marble from Derbyshire.
Neolithic maceheads are thought to have been ceremonial symbols of status rather than everyday weapons. It is significantly more rare to find these objects compared to the more common stone axeheads, arrowheads and scrapers.
Deer antler was a popular material for tool-making throughout the stone age. It was used for a variety of implements ranging from harpoon tips to needles and even jewellery.
