British Craftsmanship Since 1919 - Handmade brush with Pure Badger hair and Grey Italian Marble inspired handle

Simpson Islington Large Pure Badger Grey Italian Marble Shaving Brush

The Simpson Islington Large belongs to the Alexander Simpson Est. 1919 collection and represents an exceptional example of British craftsmanship in shaving brush manufacturing. The handle, crafted from acrylic resin with a design reminiscent of grey Italian marble, is expertly lathe-turned with absolute precision, offering both elegance and ergonomic comfort. The Pure Badger hair is carefully selected and hand-tied by skilled craftsmen, distinguished by its dark and silver colouring that indicates superior quality and exceptional purity. Manufactured on the Isle of Man by Progress Shaving Brush Limited, this brush continues a tradition that began over a century ago.

Why Choose This Brush:

• Handmade construction with hand-tied Pure Badger hair, ensuring excellent water absorption and rich lather creation
• Acrylic resin handle with grey Italian marble design, moisture-resistant with unique aesthetic appeal
• Large dimensions: overall height 100mm, knot diameter 21mm, ideal for comfortable grip and full face coverage
• Made in UK using techniques unchanged since 1919, guaranteeing authenticity and longevity

How to Use:

Before shaving, soak only the hair in warm water for a few minutes to allow the bristles to soften and retain heat. Avoid submerging the entire brush in water to prolong its lifespan. After use, rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove all soap residue and allow it to dry in a well-ventilated area.

Features and Specifications:

Pure Badger hair is sourced from the sides of the badger and is distinguished by its exceptional lathering ability and durability. Each brush is stamped with the model name, certifying its authenticity. The complete drying cycle may take up to 48 hours, which is why acquiring a second brush for rotation is recommended.

Professional Tip: Keep clean and dry for maximum lifespan.
