Tuesday AM 2018-03-06

Georgetown Pottery G20 scuttle (Hamada & Purple)
Rooney Emillion 2 Tiger Stripe Finest (26/54)
Penhaligon's Castile shaving cream (vintage)
Charcoal Goods Brass L1/Stork 'Ghost Rider' Bronze
Wilkinson Light Brigade (4)
Penhaligon's Castile aftershave (vintage)

The brush is markedly different from the other Emillions, with less backbone and softer tips, and it was perfect for making wonderful lather with the Castile cream.
