A very rare antique razor, made by Velvet, in silver-plated brass with a short screw and a rather unusual comb: an openwork plate with lines running through it. It has a chased handle and an original metal case. You can tell straight away that the materials used are top quality, and the silver plating is very thick.
The head is marked :
Velvet
Patent N°121415
It can still be in use for years to come! It uses standard double-edged safety blades. The razor is shown next to a Gillette razor (not included) to give you an idea of the scale. It is quite a thick razor.
The box is in fair condition, see photos. The inside is in very good condition, the outside is dull and would benefit from a better cleaning. It includes two boxes of empty blades, unmarked but original (Gillette type).
Please take a good look at all the photos. Two small (and very slight) dents to note: a knock on the edge of the top cap, and a very slight curve in the top of the cap. These defects in no way hinder its use.
