  • Return shipping will be paid by: Buyer
  • Country/Region of Manufacture: United States
  • Condition: The brush looks great 98% of the bristles all point in the same direction. It appears it was once a bit lighter but the color has darkened over time to a pretty butterscotch tone. Judging by the lint found among the bristles this brush was only used for that single purpose, I tried to remove as much of the remaining old lint I could and it has been washed with warm soapy water. But there are a few stubborn pieces of thread and pilling balls that do come out from time to time.
