Edwin Jagger products are crafted and hand-assembled in Sheffield, England — a city known for its rich industrial history. This Plaza Imitation Light Horn Shaving Brush (Silver Tip) is a premium silver tip badger shaving brush designed for a top-quality lathering experience.

Manufactured using the best-quality materials, this shaving brush has a contemporary design with an eye-catching brown design.

The smooth design is finished with the Edwin Jagger logo proudly displayed as a mark of the manufacturing quality.

With a knot size of 21mm (0.8”), this is classed as a medium-sized brush, making it ideal for most shavers. Whether you favour a larger or smaller shaving brush is down to personal preference but as a happy medium, this brush effectively holds a good amount of water and soap while still offering plenty of control and precision. The handle measures 50mm (2.1”) tall and 33mm (1.3”) in diameter, fitting conveniently in virtually any hand and offering a firm grip even when lathering with wet or soapy hands.

Silver Tip is highest-quality grade of badger hair available. Collected from the neck of the animal, the hairs are finely graded, sorted and hand-tied to create an incredibly soft knot of entirely untrimmed silver tips. The craft of hand-filling the bundle is incredibly specialised and the distinctive even black band capped with pure white tips shows the quality of the workmanship required to create a silver tip shaving brush. The natural ends of each hair are very delicate on the skin, creating a luxurious massaging sensation on the face. As the hairs are so fine, more hairs are required to achieve the desired knot density. Each bundle holds more than 18,000 individual badger hairs, making the knot firmer to effectively exfoliate the skin and prepare the beard for shaving. Silver tip badger hair is the softest of all the grades and it is also renowned for its ability to hold large volumes of water, enabling the brush to quickly produce a dense and creamy lather time after time.

Clean your brush thoroughly between use to keep it in top condition for as long as possible. After shaving, rinse the brush in hot water, flick away any excess moisture and hang the brush on a stand with the hair pointing down. If you do not have a stand, leave the brush pointing up rather than horizontal so that air can get to all the hairs and dry the brush naturally. This brush will fit the Edwin Jagger small range of shaving brush stands available on our website. Do not use this brush with shaving oil.
