Beau Brummel No. 53 Vintage Horsehair Barber's Brush Louisiana native The box measures 6 1/2"The thick, rounded handle of this vintage Beau Brummel barber's brush neck brush makes it a really great one to hold in your hand, and it's pretty beautiful, too! This one has had a life, with a few scratches to the finish at the base of the handle and a couple of black spots on the wood, but these give it a nice patina of age and use and the horsehair bristles are in very good shape (and nice and soft on one's neck!) 7" long x 1 7 8" in diameter.
