This comes comes plated in chrome or gold. I bought the gold model because gold is less slippery than chrome. The difference in price is negligible. Both are overpriced.
This brush comes with a stout metal carrying tube, apparently made of brass. The tube has a small hole in one end for make-believe ventilation. It is well finished although the inside has some nicely gilt drips of solder.
The handle of the brush seems to be a chunk of solid brass. It feels substantial and is well made but I find it disconcertingly heavy, especially given its small size. It lathers as well as any small brush but the ends of the hairs feel barbed. I have used cheaper brushes and more expensive ones but nothing anywhere near so unpleasant to shave with.
