Limited Edition Duke 3 Platinum Synthetic Fibre Amber

Scotsman Alexander Simpson started production of shaving brushes and male grooming ancillaries in 1919 and is widely regarded as a pioneer in the industry. Manufacturing was originally based in the East end of London but later in Clapham. In 1941, following the loss of his factory during the World War II German Luftwaffe blitz, production was moved to the West Country at the famous Nimmer Mill. Today Simpson shaving brushes and associated products are manufactured by Progress Shaving Brush (Vulfix) Limited on the historic Isle of Man. They continue to be produced in the traditional way using hand tied knots by time served, skilled workers. 

Here we present our Simpson Duke 3, widely thought of as the most versatile shaving brush on the market today in a beautiful Amber handle, packed lovingly with our NEW uniquely sourced Platinum Grade synthetic fibre.

The Duke 3 is a brush that does everything & everything well and this synthetic bristle version is no exception. Quickly adored by those who purchase.
