Moose antler brush
A brush I made from a piece of Moose antler I got as a gift from a dear friend, RezDog. I left the piece of antler in some bleach overnight, because it was clear it had been sitting outside for a while, naturally shed I'm sure. The bleaching helped the color Immensely. The base piece of wood is Afzelia burl, that I tried very hard to hand sand in every ridge and crevice so the 2 piece flowed naturally together. This was the first time I've done a brush like this. It was a lot of fun. The badger knot is a Maggard, 28mm 2 band.
Thanks for looking gentleman.

Killer brush Andrew.
The transition between the antler and wood looks flawless.
