The Silvertip Badger Shaving Brush

Silvertip is the most expensive and the most luxurious of all the shaving brushes available. The bristles feel incredibly soft and gently tickle the skin. Silvertip is sourced from the neck hair of the Chinese Badger, the neck hair is the softest, rarest and most expensive kind of badger hair. In the winter this neck hair gets extremely light tips hence the name Silver Tip. Silvertip bristles are not as straight as other badger hair so it looks softer in appearance. This softness lends the brush its ability to hold a large amount of water which helps create a dense shaving lather quickly and effortlessly.

The handle is neatly formed from faux ivory resin and feels good to hold. It is important to understand that badger hair can vary slightly as to shading and attributes, as do all natural products, so we check that our brushes are obviously Silvertips in appearance.

It is not uncommon for hand made silver tip brushes to cost hundreds of dollars so how can we offer a brush at such a great price? All modern shaving brushes are made with Chinese badger, the British and North American badger is a protected species so you will not find a brush made from these countries animals. We source our product directly from China and can pass on the savings to our customers.
