I was looking for shaving related items on various museum collections, and ran across this brush in the Australian war memorial. It is a “shaving brush made in Changi Prisoner of War camp” during WW2, made from coconut fibre. It doesn’t look the most comfortable to use, and probably wouldn’t last long, and definitely a product of it’s time and place. Given how it seems a lot of shaving products are moving away from animal products (I don't mind animal products but I'm not judging peoples preferences either way), but I’ve also seen a desire for less plastics, something like this is food for thought. I figured it was interesting enough to share. Would you try out a brush like this?
