Mantilla comb, known as peina o peineta de mantilla in Spanish, in an essential accessory for the Spanish Holy Week, flamenco performances, weddings, coplas and other important events. The most valuable mantilla combs are those that are handcrafted. If they are 100% handmade, the cut, dye and lighting is carry out individually. The most valuable mantilla combs are decorated with lots of fretworks and are considered as a perfect craftwork.
In the past, mantilla combs were made of tortoiseshell (“carey”) but, nowadays, being the tortoise an animal under protection, it is no longer possible to use real tortoiseshell. The most look-alike material is called “acetate tortoiseshell”, whose composition makes it a quasi-perfect imitation. This material is very flexible, and has a beautiful and shiny finish. It is a material extremely hard to break or deform.
Our mantilla combs are high quality. Therefore, these ornaments may last a long time in perfect conditions and, if they are well cared of, they may be passed to the next generation. It is never out of fashion, due to its traditional essence, wearable in different events.
Regardless of the model you choose, you can be sure that all products provided by TAMARA Flamenco are 100% made in Spain.
