Swedish Birch & Tampico Bathtub Brush

Swedish Birch & Tampico Bathtub Brush
£35.00
Ex Tax: £29.17
Bath tub brush, common in Japan and on the continent, and used for cleaning baths quickly and without scratching, although we think it would make a pretty good general cleaning, or soft scrubbing brush, made of birch and tampico fibre, from the Agave Lechugilla, a plant native to the highland deserts of northern Mexico. Made in Sweden by visually impaired craftsmen, which may in part account for the wonderfully tactile qualities of so many Iris brushes. The brush is a little over 20cm high and an outside diameter to the bristles of about 12cm.

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 dish soap 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.
