Description
This razor is from a series made to commemorate the historical importance of the three counts von Berg. Images are of the razor actually for sale which is individually stamped with a serial number (475) and comes in a display case and with a certificate of authenticity. As can be seen, the blade is highly decorated, while the scales have a third pin to additional stability. It has a figured plated 24 carat gold spine and tang with jimping to both the upper and lower sides. The scales are made from polished stag horn.
The castle Burg an der Wupper which is one of the largest castles in western Germany, can be found not far from the Boker factory in Solingen, and is the home of the Berg Duchy. The design on this razor symbolizes the death of Adolf III Count von Berg during the fifth crusade in Egypt.
The strop from our Custom Range is not included nor is our own Invisible Edge Faux Horn brush. These are shown for illustrative purposes only but are available elsewhere on the site – IE140017 and IE10029.
SHAVE READY – Unlike some retailers, our razors are not supplied as they come from the factory. We individually prepare all the razors we sell. For full details see our policy.
