The right tool for the bakery

This baking brush made of horsehair and oiled birch wood is a soothing alternative to the now common plastic models. The handle made of Swedish birch lies well in the hand and is perfectly finished with the horsehair.
The pastry brush is finished by hand in Sweden, as is the treatment of the wooden surfaces, which is still oiled to protect against moisture. Part of a series with baking brush and pastry cutter/dough spatula.

Today, Iris Hantverk consists 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.
