Rosewood Shaving Brush - European Grey

Emblematic of 18th-century French cabinetmaking, Rosewood is distinguished by its fine, tight grain and delicate contrasts. Against a lighter background with pinkish tones, deeper red to salmon-coloured veins naturally run through the wood. Once shaped and polished, this interplay of shades gives the handle a particularly precious and luminous appearance.

The shaving brush is filled with natural European Grey hair, appreciated for its balance of softness and firmness. More invigorating than High Mountain White, this grade provides a more stimulating feel against the skin while remaining comfortable. It works shaving soap or cream effectively into a rich, creamy lather while preparing the beard for the razor.

European Grey is particularly suited to those seeking a natural knot with greater resilience and a more invigorating feel when preparing for a shave.

Available in a wide choice of sizes, this model allows you to select the format that best suits your shaving habits and preferred grip.

The natural variations in the colour and grain of Rosewood make each handle unique.

Handcrafted in France.

For an optimal shave, thoroughly wet the shaving brush with warm water, ideally after a shower when warmth and moisture have helped soften the beard hair and prepare the skin.

Work your shaving soap or cream into a rich, creamy lather using circular motions.

Apply the lather evenly to damp skin using circular motions. The shaving brush helps lift the beard hair, distribute the lather evenly and gently prepare the skin for shaving.

After each use, rinse the shaving brush knot thoroughly with warm water to remove any remaining soap or shaving cream. Avoid excessively hot water, which may affect the qualities of the natural hair.

Gently shake off excess water without pulling on the hair, then lightly dry the knot on a bath towel. Place the shaving brush on a suitable stand with the knot facing downwards to encourage proper drying and preserve its qualities over time.

As wood is a natural material, avoid leaving the handle immersed in water or in an excessively damp environment in order to preserve its finish and qualities over time.

The choice of shaving soap is also important: an excessively acidic pH can weaken the hair and lead to premature shedding. Choose a soap or cream suitable for traditional wet shaving to help preserve the qualities of the knot over time.

Suitable for all skin types, particularly for those seeking a natural shaving brush offering a balanced combination of softness and firmness.
