Swedish Hairbrush with Wild Boar Bristles

Swedish Hairbrush with Wild Boar Bristles
£21.00
Ex Tax: £17.50
An oiled beech-handled hairbrush set with a flexible natural rubber pad mounted with six rows of wild boar bristles. A narrow brush head, making this brush usefully compact. Ideal for smoothing and untangling long, fine hair. Made by Iris Hantverk, whose workshops in Sweden and Estonia were founded to provide traditional handcraft employment for the visually impaired. 22cm long, 4cm wide.

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 50g
  • Item Dimensions L22 x W4 x H3
  • Materials Oiled beechwood, natural rubber, and boar bristle
