Post your most beautiful brush!

This is not about best performing, or your favourite all around, but about the brush you think is the best looking you have!
My best looking brush: Plisson EW size 12 Antique.



Your turn!

I can't decide so





Bob Farvour's 26mm finest on the left and 24mm black badger with Elforyn handle made by King1976 on the right.

It has to be this RV brush. It's the most beautiful brush I've ever seen and it feels like it belongs in my hand. It breaks my heart that the knot just isn't for me. I've been trying to trade it for an Ikon, but if I sell it I'll be commissioning Mr. Vey to make one just like it with a Semogue 620 knot. I can imaging no piece of shaving gear better than that.

So far it's my Rooney Victorian, but that will change soon.

Must....Not....Buy...New..Brush

But you guys are making it very difficult

Restored Ever-Ready 200 with a WD 22mm Silvertip

My Spalted Maple with Tung oil finish. 26mm TGN Finest knot.

I quite like the handle on this one.

Beautiful brush. How old is it?

I especially like sharp jar base. I bet it hooks nicely on the edge of a lathering bowl.

I have another horn from Morris and Forndran, but this particular one is so beautiful. I haven't yet seen a pattern so perfect.

My Rodney Neep beauty

Yup. This one is for me. Reminds me of an old girlfriend.

I bought it new a couple of weeks back, but it seems this is one of the oldest designs Plisson is carrying.

A Rodney Neep as well:



Fire Burl handle; 26mm knot with 50 mm loft.

Edit: Looking at all those restored beauties, I think I have to start hunting for an old handle soon...

My 1305. I've always thought this was one of the most attractive brushes I've ever seen. I love the green and cream enamel. It reminds me of a billiard ball; timeless, classic.

I just love the unique octagon handle
