Shaving Set S 091 E 58 SR

3-part shaving set without bowl, handles of ebonite with chromed metal accents:

• Ring size M: 21 mm
• Safety razor, compatible with classic razor blades
• Stand made of metal, chrome-plated

The Material - Ebonite  

Delicate lines meet a strong contrast. Deep black meets strong red. The natural material ebonite does not like to be pigeonholed. It looks like marble, but it is not. In terms of colour, the hard rubber mixture, which is produced on the basis of natural rubber and sulphur, is reminiscent of ebony. The term "ebonite" is derived from the English term "ebony".  

The supple material has hardly been used when it is already at operating temperature. So far, it has been appreciated above all by music lovers, for example as mouthpieces for saxophones and clarinets or as piano keys. Tobacco pipes and writing utensils also like to adorn themselves with the elegant material and now also shaving utensils from MÜHLE, such as the PURIST series.  

The gently rounded silhouette harmoniously picks up the curve of the grain, while the chrome-plated base and the wider collar provide a fitting counterpoint.

The brush head - Silvertip badger

Among connoisseurs, silvertip badger is regarded as the pièce de résistance: Only the best, carefully selected badger hair is used for these purely handcrafted shaving brushes. The precious natural material is particularly soft and flexible.

The fine, conically tapering hairs possess the ability to retain a large amount of water and produce a dense, creamy lather. Another sign of quality is the even black band running horizontally through the predominantly silvery gleaming hair.

This premium product is manufactured using historical tools in an artisan procedure mastered by only a few specialists worldwide. The semi-circular shape of the brush head is created by hand when binding the brush. The fine tips therefore do not require trimming and the natural softness of the hair is retained.

The razor head - Classic razor blade

For generations, the safety razor has been regarded as a stylish classic which can even shave edges with precision. For many, it is the razor par excellence. Its styling is ideally suited to the design of the MÜHLE products.

Even if the open blade does demand a little respect at first: After a brief familiarisation period, and guided by a steady hand, it produces a very close shave and a lasting result. Unlike modern blade systems, the head of the safety razor does not move. The blades are replaced by unscrewing the cap. Blades can be purchased from us and by retailers everywhere.
