Joris Olive Wood & Chrome Finish Shaving Brush - High Mountain White

This shaving brush from the Joris collection combines the natural beauty of olive wood with the shine of a mirror-polished finish. Its warmly hued handle and pure badger High Mountain White filling make for a refined accessory, where shaving tradition meets the elegance of natural materials. Made and hand-assembled in France, it reflects the savoir-faire of Maison Plisson.

An emblematic tree of Mediterranean landscapes, the olive tree is prized for the richness of its wood and the singularity of its grain. Its golden, honey and deep brown tones trace winding patterns that vary from one piece to the next. Each handle thus has a unique personality, revealed by the contrast between the warmth of the wood and the luminous reflections of a mirror-polished finish.

The natural High Mountain White filling stands out for the fineness, suppleness and extreme softness of its hairs. Particularly suited to sensitive skin, it gently works a shaving soap or cream into a generous, creamy lather. Its soft contact with the skin brings comfort and precision to every application.

This Joris model is designed to accompany traditional shaving for years to come thanks to its replaceable knot. A piece of character that combines the authenticity of olive wood, the refinement of a mirror-polished finish and the softness of an exceptional filling.

For optimal shaving results, prepare your face with warm water, ideally after a shower, to soften the beard hair and facilitate lather preparation.

With shaving soap: dampen the shaving brush with warm water, then work it in moderate circular motions over the soap, directly in its bowl, without pressing down excessively on the knot. Continue until a rich, creamy lather develops. Apply the lather to the damp face using circular movements for one to two minutes to distribute the product evenly, gently massage the skin, soften the beard hair and lift it in preparation for shaving.

With shaving cream: after dampening the shaving brush with warm water, place a small amount of cream onto the tip of the knot. Work the cream directly onto the face using circular motions for one to two minutes. Alternatively, apply a small amount of cream to each cheek or into a shaving bowl before working it into a lather with the brush.

Once the lather has been evenly distributed, shave using your preferred razor with precise, controlled movements and without excessive pressure. Reapply shaving lather before any additional pass.

After each use, rinse the knot thoroughly with warm water to remove all traces of shaving soap or cream. Avoid very hot water, which may damage the shaving brush knot.

Gently remove excess water by lightly pressing the knot between your fingers, without pulling or twisting it. Then carefully brush the knot against a clean, dry towel and place the shaving brush on a suitable stand with the knot facing downwards to encourage thorough drying.

To preserve the appearance of the olive wood handle and its chrome finish, gently wipe the surfaces with a soft cloth after use. Avoid harsh or abrasive cleaning products and rubbing that could scratch or dull the finishes. Do not leave the shaving brush immersed in water for prolonged periods.

Choose soaps and creams specifically formulated for traditional wet shaving and avoid products with an excessively acidic pH, as they may weaken the shaving brush knot and accelerate wear. Store your shaving brush in a dry, well-ventilated place, away from persistent moisture.

Suitable for all skin types, particularly sensitive skin.
