This just arrived in the mail today, from AP Shave Co.

SynBad Blue Lagoon unpacking_6807.JPG


24 mm Synbad with Blue Lagoon handle.
It goes fairly well with our bathroom colour scheme, which is dark brown wood-texture vinyl flooring, light blue walls, white fixtures.

Even a video doesn't do a good job of showing how the colour pattern shifts as you turn it in the light, similar to (but not exactly like) a tiger's eye stone of star sapphire. See Chatoyancy - Wikipedia
It also looks a bit like that "cracked ice" vinyl upholstery and melamine that was popular on '50s and '60s dining room sets. Always a favourite in Mid-Century design.
If you back-light it though, hardly any light gets through, except around the bottom ring.


I used it tonight with some TOBS Mr Taylor's cream.
Luxury.

Almost feels like winning the lottery! Scored a Brad Sears Ebonite (natchgras) brush with a 28mm 2-band select fan. I already love it!


 
I got 2 boar brushes, a Proraso and a Mondial one.

I have 3 boar brushes now which are a bit too many, and they are quite of the same size but different in functionality. But I still want to try a couple of others.
