An elegant material which must be worked with extreme care, from the manufacture of the blank shapes to the completed individual piece. Each piece is shaped, glazed and fired by hand. The top and bottom of the handles are combined with chrome-plated brass fittings.nThe Brushhead – Silvertip FibrenMuhle high-quality synthetic fibres represent a world first, a synthetically produced premium quality whose material characteristics are a close match to those of silvertip badger hair. There are few downsides to synthetic over badger, in fact, we argue that synthetic brushes are more durable, easier to maintain and they perform as well as any badger brush.n’Silvertip Fibre’ is very soft at its fine tips, yet there is plenty of backbone for lathering up. These characteristics produce a pleasant, soft sensation on the skin when the lather is applied. In daily use, the manually processed fibres are less sensitive than natural hair as they dry more quickly and are resistant to shaving soaps and creams. The completely vegan fibres are also somewhat easier to use than natural hair as they produce a particularly creamy and thick lather from a small amount of shaving soap or cream, which is used much more sparingly as a result. Moreover, no animal had to die for its coat.nThe Razor with Classic Safety Razor HeadnFor generations, the safety razor has been regarded as a stylish classic which delivers close yet comfortable daily shaves. This razor benefits from the mild shaving Muhle R89 head. Shaving with a safety razor is easy and quick – once you have mastered the basics. Watch our safety razor tutorial video to see how it’s done.
