Edwin Jagger Chatsworth Barley Shaving Brush (Super Badger)

Edwin Jagger is Europe’s leading manufacturer of luxury handmade shaving equipment. Edwin Jagger products are crafted and hand assembled in Sheffield, England—a city known for its rich industrial heritage. This Chatsworth Barley Shaving Brush (Super Badger) is a premium super badger shaving brush designed for a high-quality lathering experience.

Manufactured using top-quality materials, this shaving brush features a classic design with a beautiful metallic finish and distinctive patterning. Designed to fit comfortably in your hand, the handle has a curved design with a flared base. Each Chatsworth shaving brush is hand polished before delivery to achieve a refined shine that highlights the intricate barley pattern.

With a knot size of 21mm (0.8”), this brush is considered medium-sized, making it ideal for most users. Whether you prefer a larger or smaller brush is a matter of personal preference, but this balanced size effectively holds a good amount of water and soap while still offering excellent control and precision. The handle measures 50mm (2.1”) tall and 33mm (1.3”) in diameter, fitting comfortably in nearly any hand and providing a secure grip even when lathering with wet or soapy hands.

Super Badger is a high-quality grade of hair collected from the back of the badger, where the pelt is particularly thick and long. Super badger hair creates a densely packed knot that provides the brush with good backbone, making it effective at lifting and preparing both coarse and finer facial hair. Each brush is shaped into a natural fan profile by hand and enhanced by the untrimmed tips. The distinct black band running through the knot and the natural tips are especially soft, helping to create a luxurious, gently exfoliating lathering experience on the face. Super Badger shaving brushes also retain water exceptionally well and perform beautifully with rich traditional shaving soaps and creams.

Clean your brush thoroughly between uses to keep it in top condition for as long as possible. After shaving, rinse the brush in hot water, shake off any excess moisture, and hang it on a stand with the bristles pointing downward. If you do not have a stand, store the brush upright rather than laying it flat so air can circulate through the bristles and allow it to dry naturally. Do not use this brush with shaving oil.
