The Material:

The MÜHLE Ancient Oak EDITION is a testament to our affinity with nature and our captivation with materials that hark to a distant past. MÜHLE is forever enthralled by the beauty of our surrounding environment in the Saxon Erz Mountains. We celebrate these breath-taking wonders of nature, by choosing unique natural finishes that tell a story.

Ancient Oak is cultivated for over a millennium in airtight bogs, swamps and river banks. The beautiful dark hue of the wood is created by reactions between wood tannins and the peat's acidity, whilst the low oxygen conditions prevent the Oak from decaying.

The precious wood is refined with sterling silver, allowing the fine indentations on its surface to acquire a glistening quality. The wood is then sealed with a high gloss finish, this not only gives a brilliant polish to the Oak but also makes it waterproof.

The Ancient Oak EDITION brings beauty, cultivated for thousands of years, into your bathroom.

Silvertip Badger:

Natural, soft and flexible; only the best, carefully selected badger hair is used to create these handcrafted shaving brushes.

Silvertip Badger hair represents the finest, softest and rarest quality of badger hair available. The hair is renowned for its ability to retain large amounts of water, enabling the brush to quickly produce a dense, stable and creamy lather.

Manufactured using historical tools, the semi-circular shape of the brush is created by hand when binding. The fine tips of the hair, therefore, do not require trimming and the natural softness of the hair is retained. This artisan procedure is mastered by only a few specialists worldwide, the quality of work evident in the even black band running through the predominantly silver brush head.
