Hand Made Horsehair Hand Brush

Hand Made Horsehair Hand Brush
£35.00
Ex Tax: £29.17

A hand-sewn, shaped, and assembled dark horsehair hand brush with a waxed and dyed beech turned-wood handle and a leather hanging loop. The moderately soft fine bristles are ideally suited to the sweeping of most internal floors, collecting dust and fine particles more effectively than stiffer synthetic or vegetable fibres. Made by hand in a small family run workshop in the town of Versmold, Germany.

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 190g
  • Item Dimensions L30 x W4.5 x H8.4
  • Materials Waxed and dyed beechwood, horsehair, and leather
