Beauty, from the days when a tool was more than just a tool but a work of art also.

OK, posting that brush puts it over the top. I am really jealous now so don't pull anymore bits out of the hat. OTH if you have the matching razor..... Two absolutely top tier finds. Any info on the maker or who owned it originally? Thanks for sharing.

Stunning. I wonder what it would be like to be of means and have tools that resemble jewelry.
