Swedish Heart-Shaped Baby Brush, Goat Hair

Swedish Heart-Shaped Baby Brush, Goat Hair
£25.50
Ex Tax: £21.25
A hand stitched, heart-shaped body brush, made of a pale birch wood and exquisitely soft white goat hair. Designed to fit perfectly in the hand, this may be used on babies, children and adults alike, to relax and soothe. From the company of Iris Hantverk whose workshops in Sweden and Estonia were founded to provide traditional handcraft employment for the visually impaired, and which remains to this day one of the few and finer sources of higher quality stitched brushes. About 9.5cm long and 6.5cm across the widest point.

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 40g
  • Item Dimensions L9.5 x W6.5 x H4
  • Materials Stained birchwood, metal wire, and goat hair
