Antique Silver Moustache Brush

1900 - 1920
Description

A quirky miniature silver handled moustache brush. The handle nicely decorated with engine turned decoration and a round cartouche.

It is clearly hallmarked for Birmingham, 1917, Syner & Beddoes.

It is in good condition for its age. There are signs of age and use, some minor surface marks and small knocks but nothing detrimental and the original brush hairs are in good order. It is a very nice decorative piece but also a good usable object too. The silver has been gently cleaned and polished and it displays well.

Approximate Measurements :

Length : 3 1/2” / 9cm

Width inc Bristles : 1” / 2.5cm

The best description comes from the photos so please look at them all carefully and if you have any questions just ask.

Tracked UK Delivery £6

Rest of the world £25

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

An antique silver moustache brush is a compact grooming tool originating from the late 19th or early 20th century, designed specifically for maintaining facial hair, featuring a silver mount or handle with dense bristles.

These brushes usually consist of a sterling silver or electroplated silver casing fitted with natural animal hair bristles, such as hog or badger hair, mounted onto an internal wooden or bone setting.

Authentic pieces generally feature stamped silver hallmarks indicating the metal purity, assay office, date letter, and makers mark, alongside Period techniques like hand engine-turning.

Position the piece on a mirrored dressing tray, a marble bathroom counter, or within a glass display cabinet alongside complementary historic vanity items.

Gently wipe the silver casing using a soft cotton cloth and dedicated silver polish, taking care not to submerge the piece in water to protect the internal wooden mount and bristles.
