Kaizuka Boxwood Combs
A masterpiece from Kaizuka that brings shine to your hair every time you comb it. Kaizuka City is known as one of Japan's leading comb-making towns, producing about 70% of the nation's boxwood combs. Its history is ancient; during the Edo period, there are records of over 100 artisans honing their skills, with products being supplied to the Imperial Court and Kasuga Shrine. In the mid-Edo period, they were distributed across the country as 'Izumi Kushi'. The combs, which artisans carefully polish one by one from boxwood, are characterized by being gentle on the hair and resistant to static electricity. Every stroke creates a natural luster and smooth, manageable hair. As you use it, the wood deepens into a rich amber color and becomes more familiar to your hand. It is a lifelong tool passed down from parent to child, staying by your side for years.
