FS: Moss Scuttle, Rooney Finest, Rooney Stubby 2, Vintage Simpsons 57 (butterscotch)

[DSB]

EVERYTHING IS SOLD. THANK YOU!

For sale are some of my old favorites that just don't used enough. Prices include shipping to the CONUS. I will ship worldwide at the price below plus actual shipping costs. I will not ship the scuttle abroad -- it's pottery, and it's very unlikely it would survive an overseas journey. Everything has been cleaned, and is ready to use.

No trade offers, please.

Measurements of the brushes are actual measurements taken by me. They may differ slightly from the advertised measurements.

SOLD Large Sara Bonnyman Moss Scuttle SOLD. No chips or other defects. measurements: inner bowl 3 1/4 " wide x 1 3/4" deep. Perfect for those winter morning shaves! I solely face lather these days, so the scuttle needs a new home. $60 (includes insurance).

PENDING Rooney Heritage Stubby 2 shaving brush. Heritage Super Badger from the most recent, and highly praised, batch at Vintage Blades. I think this is one of the finest brushes Rooney has ever produced, but its bloom is just a little too big for me. I used this brush less than five times -- it's in near-new condition. $145

24mm knot
49mm loft
47mm handle

Simpson 57 Shaving Brush in Best Badger SOLD. This is a vintage Simpsons brush that has a light butterscotch patina. This is an unbelievable brush! The knot is too big for me, though. The butterscotch is a little more yellow than I'm able to capture on the camera. There is a white oval where there used to be a sticker. The brush has a couple of scuff marks on the side opposite the lamp black, and another area opposite the lamp black where the patina rubbed a bit (as seen in the second photo). I will include a new Simpsons label (sticker) with the brush, but I wanted to photograph the brush as-is. $95

23mm knot
54mm loft
53mm handle

Simpsons appreciation. That brush couldn't even get a nibble here at $50 a few months back. I wound up eBaying it and here it is, getting fought over at $95. :P Congrats to the buyer, nice to see it found its way back to B&B.
