Most appealing shapes are the Rubberset 400, the Rubberset 200 and the Persian Jar/Alibaba. They feel good in the hand whilst being aesthetically pleasing. Favourite colour is faux ivory, but jade, horn, tortoiseshell and butterscotch bring a welcome change in small doses. Don't like Chubby-style handles; uncomfortable to hold and aesthetically displeasing. Highly coloured handles that are the rage today are more suited to a sweet shop than a bathroom let alone a shaving brush; the market will soon tire of them
