Shaving Brush
Shaving Brush
Description
Description
A shaving brush in soft synthetic fibre; vegan, quick to dry, holds its shape. It does two jobs the hand can't: builds a dense lather from soap or cream, and lifts the beard so the blade meets it cleanly rather than pressed flat.
Synthetic dries faster than badger and asks for no upkeep. Store it bristles-down on the stand between shaves.

Wooden Bowl with Sandalwood Shaving Soap
The sandalwood soap and the mango-wood bowl, sold as the pair they were carved and poured to be. The puck sits snug in the recess; the brush loads without chasing it round the sink. Rinse the bowl warm first and the lather comes up looser, faster.
This is how shaving soap is meant to be used. When the puck is done, the bowl takes any standard soap.
Aegean Citrus Shaving Soap
A triple-milled citrus shaving soap, made in England. The scent is Aegean Citrus: Sicilian lemon and petitgrain, with a green edge of rosemary. Loaded with a damp brush, it builds a dense, cushioning lather. Glycerin draws in water, hydrating dry skin so the blade glides.
A 65g puck, 63mm across, pleat-wrapped in glassine paper. It sits snug in our wooden shaving bowl.
Also in Sandalwood.
Large Stand
One stand for the full setup. It holds any Kronos safety razor and the shaving brush, both upright, both drying properly between uses; the brush hangs bristles-down, which keeps its shape and extends its life.
Weighted base, no wobble, one tidy footprint. If the shelf is becoming a collection, this is the answer.

Frequent Questions
How do I load the brush?
Wet the bristles, then work them in circles over the soap or cream until they pick up a good amount. Brush that into a lather on your face or in a bowl.
Does the brush use badger hair?
No. The bristles are soft synthetic fibre, so there's no badger hair involved and nothing to shed.
How do I care for the shaving brush?
Rinse it out and stand it bristles-down between shaves. Synthetic fibre dries faster than badger and holds its shape without extra care.
What does the shaving brush do?
It does two things a hand alone can't manage: work up a full lather from soap or cream, and lift the beard so the razor meets it evenly rather than pressed down.
This shaving brush uses soft synthetic fibre: no shedding bristles in the lather, and no animal hair used to make it. It holds its shape wash after wash, dries overnight instead of staying damp through the day, and builds a lather dense enough to lift the beard so the blade meets it cleanly.
Badger-hair brushes shed loose bristles into the lather and take longer to dry between uses. This one is soft synthetic fibre, holds its shape through repeated washing, and dries overnight, ready for the next shave rather than sitting damp until the one after.
It builds a dense lather with a puck of Sandalwood Shaving Soap and lifts the beard away from the skin, so the blade meets hair first, the same job a traditional brush does. Set upright on a shaving stand afterwards, it dries fully before the next shave, holding its shape through the whole cycle.
No animal hair is used anywhere in it, which makes it the option for anyone the traditional badger-hair brush puts off. The barber's single-blade shave is made attainable with a modern re-telling, a brush doing the same traditional job of building lather and lifting hair, without needing badger hair to deliver it.
