    Default ID Help Green marbled German Boar brush

    Does anyone recognize this brush?

    I pick it up a week ago, at an antique flea market for 2 bucks the boar was matted.

    I couple of shampoos, vinegar soak and another shampoo and it bloomed great.

    It is a large soft, boar brush with a green brown and cream marbed acrylic. The only marking on it is the word “Germany” in black on the bottom.

    Nice brush super lather maker.

    The bottom makes me think acrylic.

    It's probably just a generic brush made to be sold by a retailer somewhere. often times they would put their name on it but in this case they didn't.

    It looks an awful lot like a badger brush to me, based on loft height, bloom and colour. Also, I would expect a dyed boar knot to have a more uniform black band.
