What is the difference between these two brushes

What is the difference between these two brushes:

1) from EnglishShavingCompany.com ($32 TOTAL, including shipping to USA (no tax):

2) from Crabtree & Evelyn ($35 + $6 shipping = $41 TOTAL):
http://store.crabtree-evelyn.com/acc130147.html

They look the same to me.

Correct...EJ makes the brushes for C&E...the only difference is the logo on the brush.

The ring on the C&E is THE difference ..........

Of ALL my brushes, only the C&E 's have this ring at the implant of the loft; it gives them a very appealing look imo; somehow it looks like the brush is...well...more "finished"....

I acquired my C&E's just recently (it were in fact ## 85, 86 and 87..) and i do like the look of them very much; including the lettering on the base; and they perform well (despite the fact that the super is rather floppy...)
