【UNION WORKS × ABBEY HORN】 Bristle Brush
UNION WORKSが構想から約3年、試作と改良を重ねて完成させたオリジナルの豚毛ブラシ。
靴クリームを革に馴染ませ、磨き上げる際に使用するブラシです。
毛にはしっかりとしたハリとコシを持つ「白豚毛」を採用。毛の長さや植毛密度の異なるサンプルを繰り返し検証し、ブラッシングの力が効率よく伝わる25mmの毛丈と最適な密度の組み合わせを選択しました。
硬すぎず、柔らかすぎない毛質により、余計な力を加えることなく、靴クリームを均一に馴染ませることができます。
ブラシ部分は国内の職人による手植え製法。一束ずつ丁寧に植え込むことで毛が抜けにくく、長く愛用できる丈夫な作りとなっています。
握りやすさを考慮した持ち手は、あえて塗装を施さない白木仕上げ。使い込むほどに手の油分などが馴染み、色艶が増していく経年変化も楽しめます。
持ち手の天板には、1749年創業の英国老舗ホーンメーカー「ABBEY HORN」が製作した天然ホーンのプレートを使用。丁寧に磨き上げられたプレートには、両ブランドのロゴを刻印しています。
日本のブラシ職人の技術と英国の伝統的なホーン加工技術を組み合わせた、使い心地と美しさを兼ね備える一本です。

An original pig bristle shoe brush developed by UNION WORKS over approximately three years of planning, prototyping, and refinement.
Designed for working shoe cream into the leather and polishing shoes.
The brush features white pig bristles, selected for their firmness and resilience. Through extensive testing of samples with different bristle lengths and densities, we arrived at the ideal combination of 25mm bristles and carefully balanced density, allowing brushing pressure to be transferred efficiently to the leather.
Neither too stiff nor too soft, the bristles distribute shoe cream evenly across the leather without requiring excessive pressure.
The bristles are hand-tufted by skilled Japanese craftsmen. Each tuft is carefully set by hand to minimise bristle loss, ensuring durability and long-lasting performance.
The wooden handle is carefully shaped for a comfortable grip and intentionally left unfinished. Over time, the natural wood gradually develops a richer colour and patina as it absorbs oils from the hands, becoming more beautiful with use.
The top of the handle features a natural horn plaque crafted by ABBEY HORN, a long-established British horn specialist founded in 1749. Each plaque is carefully polished to a beautiful lustre and engraved with the logos of both brands.
Combining the craftsmanship of Japanese brush makers with traditional British horn-working techniques, this brush offers both exceptional functionality and timeless beauty.

Please note that as the plaque is made from natural water buffalo horn, each piece is unique in colour and pattern.
