MÜHLE RYTMO - Shaving Brushes

RYTMO
Design as a statement: RYTMO features a minimalist, conical form that stands in deliberate aesthetic contrast to the striking lines of the chrome-plated base. The result is a series that catches the eye in the variations high-grade black resin and high-grade petrol resin, as well as brushes and razors made of heat-treated ash wood. The holder in the RYTMO line offers reliable protection against scratches with a sophisticated detail, namely a plastic insert, which interlocks with the metal and fits like a glove.

The Material:

• High-Grade Resin
  High-grade resin is a high-quality synthetic material, the surface of which is processed and refined separately. The material is ideal for exclusive accessories and writing implements because it facilitates a broad spectrum of modern and classical designs in many attractive colours.
  
  To begin with, the aesthetic basic shapes for brush and razor handles are turned out of solid rods. Then each individual work piece is polished in several passes to give the surface its special gleam. This processing method lends the models a pleasant feel and secures their beauty for many years to come.
  
  
• Steamed Ash
  Besides beech and oak, ash is one of the most important indigenous deciduous timbers. It is to be found in Europe, most frequently in the more northerly regions. For our purposes, the wood is briefly heated to a very high temperature.
  
  In this process it attains high resistance to water, the grain is accentuated and the wood takes on its brown colour. In order to preserve the naturalness of the surface, however, it is treated only with oil, not lacquered. This provides the wood with perfect protection against water and makes it particularly long-lasting.
  
  

The Brushhead:

• Black Fibre
  Innovative into the future: with its dark colouring, softness and quality, this synthetic fibre is the sustainable answer to the questions of our time. Black Fibre resembles natural badger hair, but is more robust and durable, and at the same time slightly softer at the tip than the natural material. The MÜHLE manufactory’s very own innovation makes it possible to whip up a particularly creamy shaving lather. The amount of effort required for cleaning and drying is significantly lower.

• Pure Badger
  Wet shave and facial massage in one? This is possible thanks to pure badger hair. This shaving brush is the portal to the world of shaving culture from the Erz Mountains. The natural material with its darker colour from brownish grey to black is a reflection of its extremely robust quality. The hair is stronger than silvertip and fine badger, yet softer and much more flexible than bristle material. The brush head is manufactured by machine and is processed in line with the high standards of the MÜHLE manufactory.
