Chinese Tradition

Experience the quiet beauty of traditional craftsmanship through this 螺钿木梳 — a handmade comb crafted from fine wood, delicately inlaid with nacre (mother-of-pearl) using the ancient Chinese technique known as 平脱 (pingtuo). Repeatedly varnished and sanded to a flawless finish, this comb is not just a grooming tool, but a work of living heritage.

In New Zealand, where there's a strong movement toward natural, sustainable self-care products and a resurgence of interest in slow-made artisan crafts, this comb offers powerful inspiration. The nacre reflects light like Pāua shell, offering a subtle local resonance for Kiwi audiences attuned to traditional Māori design and the ocean's treasures.

This piece speaks to the growing appetite in Aotearoa for goods that are ethical, tactile, and deeply meaningful — appealing to collectors, gift-seekers, and creatives who value craftsmanship over mass production. Whether displayed on a vanity or cherished as a cultural keepsake, this comb connects New Zealand viewers to a broader Asia-Pacific narrative of beauty, patience, and handcraft.
