Acca Kappa Wenge wood shaving set with stand and razor

Facing his image in the mirror, alone with a rough, bristling beard, is one of the symbolic moments of male intimacy. Razor and brush are his age-old signs, ritual tools with which a man prepares to face the world, clean, shaven and decent.

The 1869 shaving set is designed for people who know how to take care of themselves and those they love. It is decorated with ergonomic, natural materials and masterful craftsmanship. Innovative pure badger hair razor handles and brushes are made from hard Wenge wood, hand crafted and waxed. Their ergonomic shape is designed to adapt hand movements to the curves of the face. Their bases can be separate or combined.

Usage: 
Tradition strictly dictates shaving with soap, a brush and a razor. The best time to shave is in the morning, when the facial muscles are rested, hydrated and relaxed.
Begin the ritual by placing a wet cotton towel on your face. Apply the soap with a wet brush in circular motions to create a rich lather and massage into the skin. After you have washed the razor with hot water, shaving can begin: down the hair, along the hair, rinse your face with cold water to close the pores and avoid irritation. Applying an aftershave lotion to soothe and hydrate the skin completes your ritual.

To ensure the longevity of the brush, you must carefully wash, shake and dry it. The handle of the brush may lose its luster over time due to use. It is recommended to apply a natural wax that will preserve the original shine of the wood.
