Handmade brush.

I just bought this handmade Shave Brush from a guy off eBay, his shop was called phillipsbargains1, it’s made from a lovely little 24mm Oumobrush Silvertip with a Handmade Bog Oak Handle. I had a lovely shave with it today, randomly the small thin handle fitted my gorilla hands excellently! It has a really nice gentle touch and quite a soft backbone to the head. It is great work and hopefully the maker is correct that the handmade/turned Bog Oak Handle which is super hard, is almost rot proof!
He did say he might have a few more available but he seemed to know a lot about wet shaving so may be a member here. If so thanks! It’s turned out amazingly!
