Lovisa Bathing Brush, Oiled Oak & Horsehair

Lovisa Bathing Brush, Oiled Oak & Horsehair
£30.00
Ex Tax: £25.00
A pure horsehair and oiled oak hand pulled bath or shower brush, with a longer handle for harder to reach places. Used instead of a sponge or flannel for lathering and massaging the skin these are gentle but surprisingly effective exfoliating brushes. From Swedish and Estonian workshops where visually impaired craftsmen find employment in the hand shaping, stitching, and assembly of world renowned brushes. About 30cm long, with a 7cm head.

Care Advice

Keep dry when not in use. In the case of wet-use brushes, please shake any excess moisture from the bristles, and dry hanging up or on a surface with the bristles facing down. Clean brushes only when necessary with a little shampoo and hot water, making sure to dry thoroughly. Condition the wooden surface every now and then with a beeswax furniture polish, or mineral oil, to prevent cracks or splitting. Note that clothes moths will go for animal fibre brushes in the same way that they will for animal fibre clothes. Keep brushes in a dust free environment, and treat surfaces with cedar oil to repel them.
  • Weight g 120g
  • Item Dimensions L30 x W2.5 x H4 (Brush Head ⌀8 x H2.5)
  • Materials Oiled oakwood and horsehair
