I know this has been beaten to death, but is the beautiful 26mm onyx silvertip brush on the T&F website a Rooney? I heard they were changing manufacturers. In addition, I e-mailed T&F and the response was "we use a variety of hardware suppliers who make our branded products to spec. The quality and workmanship for our brushes, Silvertip or otherwise, is among the best in the industry." Not too conclusive, eh? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
