UNGER BROS. ART NOUVEAU DAWN STERLING SILVER BRUSH “MINTY” REPLACED BRISTLES #3

Description

UNGER BROS. ART NOUVEAU DAWN STERLING SILVER BRUSH “MINTY” w/ REPLACED BRISTLES
Condition is extraordinary.
There really are no dings or dents to this brush.
DAWN - one of Unger’s most desirable and coveted patterns. She’s just meltingly gorgeous. Nothing more to say.
NOTE:
As is obvious from the pictures, the bristles have been replaced.
On the one hand, they’re new and so from a hygienic point of view the brush can actually be used.
On the other hand, most collectors, including me, prefer the original, no matter the condition.
However, I couldn’t pass up buying this because the silver was so perfect and if it doesn’t sell, I’ll replace the bristles myself—with period bristles from a damaged brush.
NOTE
:
Also to note, the UB trademark logo has been polished away, no remnants remain.
This is an opportunity to purchase an exquisite piece of Unger Bros. in one of its most sought after patterns for a lower than market price. I am also happy to entertain reasonable, respectful offers.
As those of you who follow my listings are aware, many of the Dawn pieces have already sold, but we still have other items from this pattern currently listed (see last image) and will be listing more items shortly, including a magnificent mirror and large powder jar.
HAPPY TO COMBINE SHIPPING
Honestly, it looks like this brush has barely been used in over a century of existence.
Bears the UB mark.
The last image shows a few other items in this pattern being listed separately, with more to follow.
