2 New Brushes Finished

[Mr.Magnus]

Today i finished 2 new brushes that i turned a while ago. Thay come out real nice IMO.
Both are knoted with 24mm Finest Badgers from TGN. and the wood is coated with superglue and then polished up with micromesh.

First is a brush i made with dark Curly Koa and imitation horn.
I went with a oldschool barber type of handle on this one.

And this one is a 2 tone natural color Amboyna wood piece. The dark lines are something i pick up from watching Lewis. It's friction burning with a piece of wire thats done in the lathe.

Group shot with my Heljestrand MK31 in Curly Koa that just got finished aswell

[BraveBlades]

Both very nice. I like the finish.

I've also got a curly koa brush handle and what I love is how the wood grain appears to "shimmer" and move under the surface.
You can nearly see it in your photos but the wood grain is very animated.
Love it!

 

[Mr.Magnus]

i appreciate your comments and feedback gents!

Curly Koa is a very nice indeed. As you say Smartepants it dose have a Shimmer and 3d feel when you look at it.

That 2 tone brush is amazing, I have a thing for 2 tone woods, do you ever take commissions Magnus and what would something like that cost?

Lovely looking brushes, Magnus.
