    Default My First Custom Brush.

    I received my first custom brush in the mail at about noon, today. This is the first time I have ever dropped what I was doing to shave in the middle of the day. The photos are before the first shave; so the bulb is more open now & really beautiful.

    The brush is made from Bull Elk antlers, with a brass spacer & the bottom is Amber; which is my favorite.

    The brush was made by gssixgun (Glen) at GemStar Customs. Welcome GemStar Customs - Gem Star Customs

    Thank you Glen for a wonderful brush.
