I bought this 1901 gentleman‘s silver shaving brush recently hoping I could restore it. Brush is around 18mm at the base but as you can see the bristles had been well used!
it was very tricky to get the old bristles out, I think the original manufacturer used 3:1 cement mix.
it was a bit heart in the mouth using my dremel and gripping the silver handle had to be done with great care.
Here’ the finished result though and I’m very satisfied.
