EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting selection of hair accessories from a 1911 trade catalogue for Harrods department store. The elegant and intricately designed combs and slides showcase the fashion trends of the 1910s, offering a glimpse into the world of women's vanity and beauty during this era. The catalogue features an array of combs, from simple, smooth ones made of horn or tortoiseshell, to those adorned with intricate patterns and decorative elements, such as pearls, beads, and enamel. These combs were not only functional, but also served as statement pieces, adding a touch of sophistication and style to any updo or chignon. Slides, another popular accessory, were worn to keep hair in place and prevent slipping. The designs ranged from simple, flat ones made of tortoiseshell or mother-of-pearl, to those with ornate decorations, such as pearl-encrusted pins and intricate metalwork. These slides were often worn with long, loose waves, adding a touch of glamour and elegance to any look. The hair accessories in this trade catalogue reflect the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the time, as well as the importance placed on personal appearance and presentation. Whether worn for a special occasion or as part of daily life, these hair accessories were an essential part of a woman's beauty routine in the early 1900s. This selection provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when beauty and elegance were celebrated and cherished.
