About this item
The long glass handle on this razor (76mm for just the glass) has a colourful 'tortoiseshell' effect, or like a marble effect. There are lots of bands of colours, from cobalt blues to reds, plum, oranges, metallic blues and greens and lots more beside! The glass is borosilicate, which produces deep and dramatic colours that tend to shift and change with the ambient light, and is particularly rich in natural light. The head of the razor takes standard twin blade cartridges (not Mach3 though) and the whole razor can be unscrewed for easy cleaning and maintenance. I formed the handle by melting glass directly inside a superhot oxygen/propane flame, then annealed it in a microprocessor controlled kiln to improve toughness. However it is glass so should be treated with care, and then it will last a lifetime. The glass is entirely hand formed so no two handles will ever be the same!
