Description

Omega sketched boar bristle shaving brush. Has a large easy to hold chrome-colored ABS handle. This is in the Omega pro series for its high-quality, performance and larger size made for heavy use. Bristles are set into a silver plastic insert. Like new shoes, boar becomes better through use. The Omega seal/label shown will come off after several uses. Omega brand imported from Italy.

  • Approximate Specs:
    ~ Knot (diameter where the bristles go into the handle): 27mm
    ~ Total brush height from base to top of bristle tips: 4 15/16"
    ~ Grip area (smallest diameter on the handle): 27mm
    ~ Handle length: 2 1/2"

Please note: The brush comes in a clear hard plastic round tube that can have scuff marks or other imperfections due to shipping from the manufacturer. However, the tube does make a great protector for using as a travel brush.

A shaving brush creates lather by using a shaving soap or cream and is warm to the skin as it raises the hair for shaving. In addition, it gently massages the face and improves skin circulation. It is kind, cleansing and mildly exfoliating yet gentle enough for sensitive skin. Check out our Reference Desk for more information.

    Call me Contrary

    Posted by dthatch on May 6th 2016

    I prefer boar bristle to badger and I use a Harry's Winston razor instead of a "safety" razor (I still carry scars from my early days with Gillette Blue blades). I used a badger brush for many years because everyone said badger was better but after purchasing an Omega boar brush for my travel kit, I bought this brush for home (chrome handle to please the wife, looks good on the counter). I love the heft and longer soft, but firm, bristles of this brush. It lathers beautifully and the firmer bristles give me better control. The smell associated with boar brushes dissipates after a few shaves. Five stars all the way.
