This upcycled beard comb was originally a vinyl record. Sold by Estonia-based Upstairs Shop, the Grably comb is the perfect personal grooming tool for hipsters or those with a penchant for vintage items. Vinyl records are often recycled into other objects, from eye glasses to lighting.
Created by product designer Pavel Sidorenko and graphic designer and ceramist Maria Sidorenko, Grably is a great example of how sustainable design meets functionality. The beard comb comes in two styles: No. 15 and No. 20. The former features thick, widely spaced teeth for rugged beards, while the latter is a wide tooth comb with thin closely-placed spikes for longer hair. In addition to facial hair, the hair tools can be used on a lady's long locks as well.
