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

This shaving brush from the Joris collection combines the natural warmth of thuja wood with the brilliance of a chrome finish. Its beautifully grained handle and natural High Mountain White badger hair knot create a refined shaving accessory, bringing together elegance and exceptional softness. Handcrafted and assembled in France, it reflects the traditional expertise of Maison Plisson.

Prized in fine cabinetmaking for its distinctive natural patterns, thuja wood is characterised by flowing grain and warm shades ranging from honey to deep brown. The intricate markings of thuja burl create unique contrasts and a remarkable sense of depth in every piece. Paired with polished chrome fittings, this precious wood reveals a warm yet contemporary aesthetic, giving each handle its own individual character.

The natural High Mountain White badger hair knot is a rare and prestigious grade, valued for the exceptional fineness, flexibility and softness of its bristles. Particularly suitable for sensitive skin, it provides a gentle massage during shaving preparation and helps create a rich, creamy lather from shaving soap or cream.

Available in standard size 12, this shaving brush features a removable, screw-mounted knot that can be replaced when necessary, extending the life of its precious wooden handle. A refined combination of natural materials and everyday comfort, designed to accompany the traditional shaving ritual for years to come.

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 wooden 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 seeking an exceptionally soft and flexible natural badger hair knot.
