A friend very kindly gifted me this NOS Omega 621 badger brush he picked up in a charity shop.
The box has that slightly faded look of sitting in a shop window all its life and I wasn’t sure what to expect when I opened it. Lo and behold the brush is brand new with hang tag attached and even still inside the original plastic travel tube.
Omega, Italy responded to my inquiry for information as I couldn't find any refrences to this brush online. They updated their printing process for the logo and changed the outer packaging in late 1970's so they informed me that this brush pre-dates those production changes.
Quite remarkable its remained in a box all this time and it still has that unused badger hair smell.
Pictured next to a Yaqi Sagrada Familia for size comparison.
It’s a lovely wee brush and it seems almost a shame to get it wet after surviving all this time.
