Thread: Rooney GS Brush & Ivory Moss Scuttle

Here are a couple of recent purchases of mine. I thought I'd post up and recommend them to others, since IMO they are both superb.

First is a Rooney Silvertip brush, with faux ivory handle. 105mm tall with a 20mm knot.

Rooney make these for The Gentlemans Shop in Hungerford UK, hence they are badged 'GS' rather than Rooney. IMO these are a superb deal, not only do they look and perform great, but they cost only £30 for a Silvertip brush, whereas a similar sized Rooney Style 1 in Super costs £48!!

I'm lucky to live only a few miles away from The Gentlemans Shop so I was able to check out all of the brushes there first hand, and compare them against each other. The GS/Rooney was a hands down favourite even without taking price into account - it looked the best and felt the best in my hand.

Next is the familiar Moss Scuttle from Sara Bonnyman. I previously owned a large scuttle from Sara in Cobalt Blue, but stupidly sold it. I've missed it ever since and when I heard she was selling them in a new colour (Ivory) I placed an order, this time a small sized one. It suits the Rooney brush nicely, and even goes well with my new RW razor.
