INT'L CUSTOMERS; Unless your order's >$400 or has at least one item explicitly stating "includes EMS express mail", free tracking is NOT included-you must optionally elect to purchase it (if you want it). Service ranges 7-90 days and there's absolutely no way to find out what's going on.
We'll happily accept small orders from all over earth, however...
PURCHASE WITHOUT TRACKING = YOU ASSUME ALL RISK OF LOSS
We've no option to add any tracking to regular 1st class int'l mail (domestic packages now get this for free).
So far (>7000 att. @ this writing), overall risk of disappearance is ~0.46%, with Western Europe/Great Britain/Canada closer to ~0.2% and Australia/New Zealand thus far perfect with well over 1000 combined attempts.
I can't offer Registered Mail anymore-it takes too long hand-writing 3 forms, sealing a box with water-activated tape, and queueing up at the post office...time's just too valued. We instead offer to partially subsidize EMS Express Mail's high cost, which is always a minimum of $38(and moves up based on a weight in a jiffy!).
The option buys speed & safety, but only you can decide if it is worth it to you. Minimum order value of $100 to elect this option.

Omega Shaving Brushes made in Italy

Nobody stocks all of Omega's brush styles; they make so many. Like the best suppliers in many industries, Omega Pennellificio aims to sell at each price point. They make everything from basic brushes all the way up to luxury. Despite making them in Italy, even their nicest brushes seem to be less expensive than the best from Great Britain, Germany, and France.
Omega's the king of boar brushes. Don't knock the boar till you try it! Some actually prefer the great exfoliating offered by the boar; I'll take 'em over a 'pure' badger brush any day. They'll take a looong time to break in, but eventually become a great combo of soft tips with lots of backbone.
Omega's synthetic badger brushes lack nothing against many finely-crafted badger brushes. Functionally they're often superior. They whip up furious lather, hold more moisture than all but the very best badger hair, and have tips which are as soft and supple as most brand's silvertip designation. I'd clearly take them against anyone's base-level badger hair; it isn't even close.
And hey, Omega makes some badger hair models, too, of course...don't forget that. As they've an enormous selection, we've just now started with the ones I'd say are truly special, and in time some of the rest will come.

The Omega 50014 Travel Brush is a small 'turnback' model which encapsulates the bristles in the handle when you're travelling. It has a stiff and scrubby boar knot made to look cosmetically like a badger brush. Works very well with the Valobra shave stick.

The Omega 11126 Brush is a 'standard' boar model w/ conventional-looking boar bristles and a premium handle, made from Ovangkol, an African tropical wood often used in fine guitars. A golden ringlet caps the knot. With the boar models below, you're primarily paying for the knot...with the 11126, the handle's a more significant portion of its costs. I find I can really 'paint' my face with the lather because of this handle's great shape.

 | The Omega 10048 is an all-time classic, still a modern staple of Italian barberias, with a monstrously big and long knot of boar bristle. No cool wood or metal or lathe-turned plastic handle; chromed ABS plastic, just as barbers there use. But the 10048 works great. I've had one years and have always loved it; it remains to this day a heavy hitter in my rotation, and the first thing I'll pick up to try any new hard soap. The best cheap brush ever!

modern Italian barber would likely use. Lather up with vigor and a soap with it!

The Omega 599 Badger Brush is a neat little guy in the 'hood of Simpsons pinkie-finger-sized Wee Scot. I immediately love its broad, flat-topped ~21x48mm knot; frankly, it seems like everything I've loved about Wee Scot for 20yrs but without a cramp in my hand from trying to use something so teensy, and is an immediate take-it-home piece of inventory. It has Omega's top grade of silvertipped badger hair. Packaged in a gift box, but no stand...actually, getting a stand that will fit will certainly be a challenge. Of what we carry, only the Dovo #499806, Dovo #499906, and the little ~$8 Mühle plastic stands seem to work in a way I'd describe as 'perfectly'. I'm sure earth has other options, but those 3 (really 7 as the Mühle comes in 5 colors) you can take to the bank.

The Omega 6551 Badger Brush is one of their überexotics, made from a stag handle. Production's slow and there ain't a bunch of them running around (Omega 6551s, that is...here in the USA you can run through the forest and meet plenty of stag-handles-to-be). It has Omega's top grade of silvertipped badger hair. Please see the linked video below for our current stock of three samples...my wife's way out of line for hoping to snicker at an upcoming high view counter reading, and you have every damn right to be persnicketty about how your antler-handled beauty looks versus some lame stock pictures (ours excluded, of course). Packaged in a gift box, but no stand. INT'L SHIPPING INCLUDES COMPULSORY REGISTERED MAIL (you don't need to buy it distinctly, and we won't ship it via regular untraceable first class mail).

While perhaps not the king of their überexotics, the Omega 6226 Badger Brush is definitely their most costly (or, more accurately, their most costly to purchase for resellers). Production numbers are assuredly small. It has Omega's top grade of silvertipped badger hair, in a ~26x61.5mm knot with a towering handle. A big old flagship. Packaged in a gift box, but no stand.
