Introducing The Wungening — Healing Spirit
Handmade with heart and ocean breeze in Emerald Beach, NSW, the Wungening is more than a shaving brush — it’s a small work of living art.
The word Wungening comes from the language of the Noongar people, the Traditional Custodians of the south-west of Western Australia. It means healing, and speaks to renewal, community, and the quiet strength that flows through Country. That spirit lives in this brush — a tribute to the land, the hands, and the stories that continue to shape it.
At its core rests a Leucadendron bloom, its slender petals dusted with gold and silver, its stem gilded like sunlight through gum leaves. The whole flower sits in a clear blue epoxy, threaded with flecks of gold dust that shimmer like river light.
Each one of my brushes are shaped entirely by hand — no molds, no shortcuts — just patience, craftsmanship, and respect for the beauty of nature and culture.
The Wungening isn’t only for your morning ritual. It’s a celebration of craft, culture, and connection. A moment to pause, breathe, and honour the spirit of renewal.
One brush. One story. One healing.
