If you jolled Joburg you would remember Ponte in its heyday, it was actually developed as 'luxury housing' and quite an impressive building at the time, sadly this building has been turned into another disgusting CBD slum, something our politicians are very good at.
This brush has been shaped like Ponte itself; high, cylindrical and round, there is certainly enough to hold on to. The brush is made from Sicklebush that shows beautiful, fine red grain and some of its natural form, the resin has some purple in it, but it is hard to pick up and only high light exposure will reveal a bit of glitter, now hidden away, much like the building's more colourful past.
The brush stands 145 mm tall, with the loft at 55 mm. The base is 39 mm in diameter and up at the penthouse in narrows down to 32 mm. The brush weighs 123 grams and is fitted with a 26 mm Battered Boar knot
