    Default vintage Plisson

    So im walking through a huge antique store, and in a plexiglass case I see this brush. I look at the price tag and it says $15. Ummmmmm, can you open this case please!!! It didn't take me long to look over this one and realize this is a good price for this old Plisson. The bristles are obviously badger and are in good shape. the Plisson logo looks to have some damage but you can still make out the name. I also think its missing another sticker that would have said "sterilized badger hair." It has a brass ring around the base of the bristles which is also in good shape. The bristles to me look as though they are probably in the pure category??? I,ve tried to find other Plissons that look like this on here and by google, but haven't found anything except ones with the same logo. The handle is what makes this brush pop!!! The pictures don't do it justice. It has a deep, wood grain look to it, when in the light makes it come alive. I believe this brush date to 70's/80's????? I have maybe had 10 shaves with this brush and it seems that it gets better with every shave. I am coming from using a col. conks best badger, so its not saying much. It has been a good starter brush. This is only the second brush ive owned and I really like it. Any other info would be great or if I have any of my details wrong please correct me.

    Has the look of 1960s or so.

    Looks like you got a great deal on a premium brush.
