Got several french wedges in black horn, XIXe, we often found them on our markets.
In my personal collection, I got this Pradier, 1820, carved ivory.
I really like french blades of the first part of the XIXe century
Edit : I forgot those two "disposable" razors :
Frameback Cornu à Troyes, patented in 1819.
Shavette Jeanningros Frères, patented in 1849.
Those are the three french blades in my permanent collection.Last edited by Thaeris; 08-13-2013 at 07:33 AM.

Wow - I have two TI's and Thaeris, that's probably one of the most beautiful razors I've ever seen! Both the blade and scales are breath-taking!
Let us know if you ever plan on selling it...I'm sure someone will buy one of my children!

Thanks, but I'm not planning to sell it ^^ It's making a pair with a similar Joseph Elliot, and the two of them cost me so much to restore that it wouldn't even be profitable to sell them.
Moreover, I think that if I should only keep two, I would choose those.
They're shaving really smooth, and I just love the way they're carved...
