Semogue Taj or Butterscotch Boar comes to my mind
the Butterscotch is a mixed Boar/Badger but is also available in Boar

On it's way from Spain is a Semogue C5 Torga Boar. It's like a variation on the Semogue Owner's Club made for face lathering. It has a 24mm Premium knot with about 50mm loft. The handle shape is similar to some of the older Semogue Cerda special edition brushes.
Packages sure are taking a long time to ship from Europe these days.

My QED savile Row 3824 has served me extraordinarily well for over ten years. However, I've got my eye on either a custom Shavemac (I want Silvertip, thick backbone, chubby handle, ideal for face lathering) in a blue or green faux marble.
Just ordered my first Varlet brush.
I just ordered this WCS Silvertip brush. 26mm knot and 56mm loft. I really like the long 75mm handle which should match the shave scuttle I ordered from Georgetown Pottery. My hope is that visual harmony of the two will please my better half. It gets decent reviews and the price was only $54. If it sucks I won't be out too much money. All of my other brushes are synthetic, this will be my first real silvertip.
I have one brush .. and to be honest I just can't rationalize more than one.. but if there is a brush that inspires brushlust .. its those pictures of all the Varlets. That guy has incredible taste and aesthetics.
Hmm...
Most likely a vintage brush that I really like the handle on to use as is or reknot depending on the knot.
Other possibilities: Zenith Manchurian, Simpson 2band/SiLVERTiP/Manchurian if I find a real good deal, D01 2 band if I find a real good deal, Maybe Shavemac 2 band or Semogue Mistura LE, maybe an Omega connaught jade.
Probably a Simpson Mixed hair if they decide to make one. That'd pique my interest.

UGH! I don’t need another brush! I don’t need another brush!
(But I am debating another Shavemac vs. another Simpsons!!

I am ogling that Yaqi cola for a loooong time... and somehow I still want a rubber set 400 clone.

Which Simpsons are you considering?UGH! I don’t need another brush! I don’t need another brush!

I really don't need another, but... a Zenith in Manchurian or a Simpson in best. Duke 3 would be ideal.
Possibly a Tulip 3 super or an M7?

'Tis a shame Simpsons don't offer the Eagle 2 or 3 in Best; they offer the 3 in Super but it is very expensive. I've said many times that the M7 in Best or Super from WCS is a great deal, even at full price. I have both. Such an elegant classic- and great for face lathering. Enjoy the quest!
I'd like to check out the B11 hair that Declaration just posted.
I’m interested in the Thater 4125/0 2-band silvertip in a bulb knot. Anyone have one that wants to share your thoughts? I have the brush in sizes 1 and 2!
Tulip 3 in super INCOMING!! 
Just need to explain the ‘..need for brushes to dry properly...’ concept to LOTH!! Again!!

I am torn between that and a LE Berkeley or Tulip 1 Silvertip from Simpsons.

Why not one of each? They're small.
