The more orbits around our sun one travels, the more one comes to appreciate those objects made by hand with a commitment to quality, and a singularity of purpose in their design and execution. I’m speaking of rangefinder cameras, point-to-point wired valve amplifiers, idler turntables, small-batch whisky, bespoke road bikes… record brushes. I never thought I’d be including a record brush on a list of objet d’art, but after seeing one online, requesting a review sample, and using one, I’d be remiss to not include it. The Ramar Record Brush, designed and handcrafted by Rangel Vasev in Berlin, Germany is another fine example of what happens when an artisan focuses on making the best.
