Leonidam

This brush is of extraordinary quality - the magnificent colouring, the well-made handle and the accurately tied knot all create an unique product. When I first saw the vibrant pictures here, I was curious how the brush might look compared to them. I am relieved to say it looks absolutely gorgeous and offers the same kind of detail as shown in the photos above!

The brush was delivered to me in a carefully compiled package. My shaving process is so much more fun with this little brush!

Received my first shave brush today from Leonidam and it’s amazing! Great communication from Davide who sent images of the completed brush for my approval. Brush arrived beautifully packaged and is exactly what I wanted. Can’t wait for my first shave with it!

As for my previous one ordered 5 years ago, this new shaving brush is a piece of art.
I would like to express my admiration for the work you do.
So please keep making such gorgeous shaving brushes for the aficionados that we are!
Best Regards

I got my "Fireblast" shave brush from the latest drop, so it came with a longer, 70 mm handle. A nice bonus to an already excellent shave brush. Backbone and splay are quite well balanced, gel tips create the softest possible touch to face. And this flawless performance comes in a contrast bloody red and golden appearance. Great work, Davide!

Was looking for a great quality brush and came across this piece. The pictures don't do enough justice on the level of detail done. The brushes Davide makes are a true work of art, and would highly recommend them to anyone in search for the ideal brush.

The brush turned out to be great. The color and pattern is simply stunning, the slightly larger handle is comfortable in the hand and the knot is soft on the face. I went for a 52mm loft and it was not floppy at all. I could go for 54 and probably even 56mm as well and still enjoy it immensely.

Here’s how the brush looks like after I lathered 3 times, 1st time just to test the know on 2nd and 3rd using for shaving.

By far the best badger shaving brush I have used so far. A great knot and the workmanship of the shaving brush is impeccable. Just as beautiful in person as in the photos

Beautiful perfect craftsmanship

Got an Elatha brush with the cachmere knot. The handle is super amazing. The detail level is extraodinary. The dual tone design makes it looking both classical and modern. The handle is very solid and the knot is very comfortable and soft with good backbone.

The craftmanship level in this product is probably the best you can find.

This brush is absolutely gorgeous, and she lathers as good as she looks. Bravo, Davide! This is my second Leonidam brush. Davide is a true artist, and he is a pleasure to deal with. Buy with confidence!

This is my first Leonidam Brush I got, I have to say I’m very impressed with it’s attention to detail and it’s uniqnes of the wood / pour. The knot on this brush handle is 26mm HD Gell Tips, very nice flow feel’s great on face perfect with any soap to have that lather to explode in seconds how good it is!!

Kudos to Leonidam Brushes for their Excellence in Craftsmanship.

This review is for the Aurelio 28mm Silversynth

First of all: I'm a bit crazy. This is my 17th shaving brush (not counting the ones I tried when I started traditional wet shaving). Among the brushes I own are Simpsons, Plisson, Shavemac, Mühle, Thäter and quite a few by artisanal makers like Rod Neep and Rudy Vey.
This sensationally beautiful brush is my fourth Leonidam brush, so I'm quite confident of my opinion: I have NEVER had a better shaving brush. Davide's workmanship is exceptional, he is truly a master of his craft. The fit and finish is perfect, the polish is astounding, and the lather has to be felt to be believed.
In Germany, we have the word 'preiswert', meaning 'worth the price': This brush (which isn NOT cheap) is worth every penny. I just know that I will still be enjoying this brush when I have long forgotten about its price.

Attendevo con trepidazione questo stupendo oggetto. Peccato essermi rasato stamattina....ma la prossima sarà certamente il suo turno. Appare evidente subito la cura incredibile posta nella confezione e anche se non posso definirmi un intenditore sopraffino, capisco subilto che non mancherà di darmi un sacco di soddisfazioni. Grazie a Leonidam e a presto.

Devo dire che mi sono approcciato ai pennelli Leonidam con cautela e riserva; era la prima volta che "incappavo" in questo brand ed ero indeciso se volevo veramente acquistarne uno. Sono stato ripagato in pieno: prima di tutto i contatti con l' azienda artigianale: Davide e' stato fantastico per gentilezza, correttezza e professionalita'; non credo che esistano molte aziende che realizzano il modello che hai scelto e poi, una volta svolto il lavoro, ti inviano foto del pennello per sapere se e' di tuo gradimento oppure no....
Lo stesso e' arrivato a destinazione meno di 48 ore dalla mia "approvazione"; servizio spedizione eccellente.
Packanging veramente raffinato e sobrio allo stesso tempo accompagnato da una piccola lettera scritta a mano dallo stesso Davide che mi ha piacevolmente sorpreso.
Ho scelto il modello Hecate sia per il colore che per la forma del manico che e' particolare rispetto a quelle classiche.
Provato immediatamente visto che,in attesa del suo arrivo, non mi radevo da tre giorni: il nodo e' di primissima qualita'; morbido e inodore, cosa che spesso non si riscontra in un pennello nuovo e che ho immediatamente apprezzato. Monta magnificamente il sapone e sulla pelle e' leggero e consistente allo stesso tempo.Il peso e' ottimamente bilanciato. IL grip del manico e' eccellente e assicura una presa salda anche con mani umide o bagnate.
Ottimo " investimento" ; il pennello vale ogni Euro speso e, per quanto mi riguarda, non sara' l'ultimo.....

First, I asked if it was possible to make a Breaking Bad inspired brush, and finally it was made! This one is one of my favorites among The Butcher. Great backbone as always and you know what? There is a reason I only have Leonidams in my collection, they are simply the best and most beautiful brushes out there!
