Omega — Omega manicure and pedicure instruments from Solingen
Italian shaving brushes — the classic badger and synthetic knots.
What they are known for
Omega has been making shaving brushes long enough that their shapes became the reference other makers copy. The knots are set by hand and the handles are turned rather than moulded.
Badger or synthetic
Badger holds more water and builds a softer lather; synthetic dries faster, costs less and does not shed. For a first brush synthetic is the sensible answer — the difference is real but smaller than the price gap suggests.
