Neckline clipper work, badger-brush lather, restored chairs and the old tools of the trade — the daily craft of the shop.

Comb and clipper blended up from the neckline so the taper settles cleanly for weeks.

A badger brush whipped into warm lather to soften coarse bristles before the blade.

Seven cut-throat razors kept from the old bench — today every shave gets a fresh single-use blade.

Wood, enamel and a single chair — barbering as it looked long before the first Wilder chair.

A hand clipper from the old bench, cleaned and set out beside the cordless clippers we cut with today.

A restored chair and porcelain basin, still reclining for hot-towel shaves every day.

Reclining chairs spaced generously apart, so nobody feels hurried out of their seat.

A plain working room: sanitised tools laid out fresh, and nothing that does not earn its place.

Find the stripe on the corner of Forge Street and come on in.
