Custom Made Shavemac
I have had $500 plus brushes and plain and simple this is the best looking and best constructed Brush.
Had it custom made to my measurements with his Finest Silver tip he could find and then overstuffed(Just how I like it soft and firm). Then he acquired some Madagascar Ebony and put the engraved nickel plate on the bottom. Enough said here are the pics.

D*mn, and a traditional english fan shape to boot. If you ever decide to not keep it, I'll change my name to Don if I can buy it!
Looking forward to hearing how it performs "in the wet".

Having just made a couple custom brushes myself, I can only say that this humbles me. That is truly impressive craftsmenship not only with the brush knot, but the woodwork and metalwork is amazing.
Beautiful, Just Beautiful!!

Edit - And how. How is such a thing done? I am in awe.

Cool looking brush! I like the addition of your name to the bottom of it. Custom features like that are the best.
What does a five hundred dollar brush look like?

That is a beauty Don, what are specs on the brush. Knot size & loft
The handle looks like it is the VLB shavemac except much prettier with the Madagascar Ebony.
