Thread: Restored brush

So, I picked up a straight razor and an old brush on eBay for restoration purposes, it looked like having boar hair, but what caught my eye was the elegant handle. It was a BIN auction with the option of Best Offer and I managed to get it for about 30% less what he was asking.
As soon as the package arrived, I gave the brush to a friend of mine, who is a shaving brush master craftsman - I'm sure you'll know who I'm talking about, and he managed to remove the original hair, put some extra dense Best Badger hair in a short loft with about 20 mm diameter. The original lettering was also repainted in golden paint.
The result was a slim, elegant brush, very useful for soaps. I just used it now and loved the feeling of it.
Here are the photos before and after bloom.

Very nice

Brushes are the one department I'm lacking in. The jealousy you've inspired should get me in gear to acquire some.

Thank you sir.
