Very nice, I bought an old print featuring a straight shave awhile ago, a French piece as well, framed now and hanging in my living room, surprised, the wife quite likes it:

Is that a paddle strop on the floor? Looks more like a war club.

I came across a YouTube video that talked about those barber bowls depicted in post #1.
There is a barber in Paris named Alain whose shop has some really nice antique barbering stuff that reminds me of the art in this thread. Search YouTube for maitre barbier a Paris if interested.
Dave, could it be a cricket bat?

Could be. Never held one so I am at a loss.
What is the round object right behind the bat? Don't even have a guess on that.If you don't care where you are, you are not lost.

It's hard to make out but it looks like a bowl of some sort dripping water or cream.
