Just got a lot in from France, with some highlights. Also some more recent acquisitions; I've been lately very interested in French razors.

First up, a pair in tortoise. I've still got a lot to learn about French styles and makers. The collars are silver.

3 Old French razors. The top one is the oldest and has interesting curved horn scales.

And finally, one from a rather rare maker, Benjamin Withers and Co., trademark "ESPAGNE". Listed in Gales and Martin 1787, I'm assuming this dates to somewhere around that time.

That's all for now. A Merry Christmas to everyone!
