Porch and boot broom, short handle

A hand drawn brush of long arenga fibre stitched into a birch stock and handle. Arenga - derived from the trunks of a South East Asian sugar palm - is considered one of the hardest wearing of all natural brush fibres, traditionally used for marine ropes and caulk, its water resistance and flexibility makes it ideal for sweeping damp porches, or flicking mud from boots. Made in Sweden by visually impaired craftsmen. This 55cm brush is especially suited to boots and small spaces.
