Udyagiri Wooden Wide Comb

Udayaigiri cutlery is known for its intricate carvings and fine proportions and is made by a few master craftspersons of the region. The craft probably originated during the time of the Quli Qutub Shah kings. The carvings are on wood sourced locally, from forests in and around Udayagiri, be it Nardi, Devadari, Bikki Chakka, Kaldi chakka or Palabarki. The most commonly used wood is from Nardi as it is very soft and easy to handle.
