India has always been a paradise of art. Not jus coz i am born here, being an Artist i connect to this land even more. The only thing that saddens my heart is we do not value our own treasures.

My art leanings has often taken me to many websites of museums abroad where our creativity is taken care of. While casually flipping through websites of art museums this afternoon, i found some amazing collection of combs. Check it out.
☘You must have all heard about Pusyamitra Sunga. Here's a comb from the Sunga Empire featuring a Goddess. You will find it in Creative museum.
☘Another one from the Shunga Empire comes this ivory comb from the Cleveland Museum of Art. Styled like Chandraketugarh, an archeological site 21 miles from Kolkata in Northwest India. The comb features two goddesses and two peacocks on either side of them, facing each other.
☘Another ivory comb from karnataka displaying two peacocks. Arent they so gracefully adorned?
