Robust bath brush | horse hair and oiled oak wood

Gentle massage with fine foam

This sturdy wooden bath brush is studded with strong horsehair, making it an eco-friendly plastic alternative, but more importantly, the natural trim can be used in combination with a good soap to create a particularly soft lather - even when showering.
With its ergonomic shape, the bath brush lies particularly well in the hand. Its bristles, which extend outwards, also ensure a wide application area. Horsehair is an excellent material for bath brushes because it is soft and supple, while at the same time it is robust, durable and has a certain elasticity.
We recommend letting the bath brush dry standing up so that the moisture is wicked away from the wood.

We have these bath brushes made in a Swedish factory, all the work steps are carried out by hand in the tried and tested brush-making tradition. The trim of pure natural bristles is also drawn in by hand and carefully lashed with stainless steel wires. The bristles are thus permanently attached to the brush body made of oiled wood and cannot come loose easily. The wood, also from Sweden, shows no cracks even after years of use, the wire no rust.

Today there are Iris Hantverk of 17 employees. The main business is the brush binding factory in Sandsborgsvägen, Enskede. Here six visually impaired craftsmen from different cultures make brushes in the old Swedish tradition. Since August 2012, the company has been run by Richard Sparrenhök and Sara Edhäll. They care a lot about the craftsmen and the survival of brush-making. They believe that many like them appreciate the feel and quality of a hand-drawn brush made from natural materials.

Their vision is to revive the traditional profession of brush binding. By producing functional products with good design, combined with the quality of natural materials and the solid technique of the craftsmen.
