- What a lovely mug! I am delighted to announce the fellow who in truth needs no introduction as he leads a tour of my Marvellous Barbershop Museum. Join the Right Hand Man as he entertains and informs during this occasional guide to the tremendous tonsorial treasures on display. This month he considers the history of the Shaving Scuttle and selects some rather special items of particular interest.
It’s really rather fascinating. He’s not quite as silly as he looks you know...
My Marvellous Barbershop Museum in Kings Lynn is Norfolk and good. Do call HQ if you’d like to visit. There is usually tea and cake.
Carry on.

I found one today at a thrift shop. It is porcelain with silver inlay. It says in German, "So it was, so it is, so may it be" It has the man's name on it too.
Never could have imagined seeing a collection of this type. Those are so well placed and organized.
Congrats on your video, beautyful collection, great range of variety as there are men in old English society rich and humble, I'm from Chile and I own an old English shaving scuttle, Joy the item and good shave too.
Fascinating thanks .l aways wondered why the " old spice "mugs commands far more money than my lovely China scuttles . But having recently brought one l found they are great to use in a small bathroom. Cant wait to visit your museum.
Marvelous. Thank you for showing-off these treasures. Would love to visit your museum.
Regards, Patrick (Switzerland)
It would be a delight to have you visit the Captains Emporium and experience his ever growing tonsorial treasure trove!
What was used before 1867?
What a great collection. Ill make sure to hop by when im around. Greetings from The Netherlands! Btw i love your shaving products!!
I grew a beard quite some time ago..started growing it when I was 30, just to see how I would look with a full beard. I started getting into shaving ASMR vids with classic straight razors around 4 years after that...and it revived an old bucket list memory of mine from my childhood: I wanted to have a hot towel shave at least once in my life with a straight razor. This was brought on by a youth growing up with vintage movies and cartoons I saw with my family showing that kind of shave and a love of vintage items that connected me with family members I never got the chance to meet because they passed away. Just before Covid lock downs began in early 2020 I finally found a place to do it...places that do hot towel straight razor shaves are rare in my neck of the woods in the US...I've only found 3 and only two of them use actual shaving cream, the third uses gel which while a close shave...was not to my liking as I've tried all 3 since that first shave in 2020, the other two do use cream but it's that pre-heated machine cream instead of a shaving soap cake or the like. I actually enjoyed my first one so much I bought my own shavette straight razor and a starter set that came with a cup, a shaving soap cake, and a badger brush. I've used it to keep things tidy every since...I'm gonna be treating myself this year around my birthday and getting a shave, I'm gonna go with the "Doc Holiday" look of mustache and goatee and shaving off the rest of my beard.
Such a lovely collection, will visit when next in kings lynn!!
My skittle just has a divider in the middle. That’s it no extra bowl.
A mug shave is superior to a can shave anyday.
Is it just me or does anyone else have a hard time using Taylor of old bond streets shaving scuttle? Jist seems too small
What is the name of the tune? I love it. Thank you.
What a shame that I do not live in England. What a wonderful collection - and so eloquently presented!
What a delight to hear such kind words good sir, in truth you have brought a hint of a tear to the Captain's tad jaded eye.... If you ever are traveling to England then please do pop in - Huzzah!
@@CaptainFawcett What a lovely reply!
Nice! Good collection!
Loved the video. I have been feeling a bit nostalgic lately and started shaving with a safety razor. I am looking to purchase a mug and brush for everyday use (I will need to change out the knot in the brush before using) and came across your video just trying to learn about mugs. You have an awesome collection and thank you for sharing it here with us.
If I am in Norfolk I will be definitely be dropping in, beautiful collection. I have two shaving scuttle that get used on a weekly basis.
Your the coolest man ever!! Nuff love from the petrol station
Why thank you my chortling chum!
How was your tour in America sir? Please come by again!
Is it ashamed to use a pink vintage shaving scuttle for a man?
Ofcourse not! Shows u r a man, comfortable with whom and what he is!
