Stylish and practical wood broom. The brush is handmade with bristles that effectively sweep up crumbs and messes. The shorter handle allows for easy storage and is also ideal for having your little ones help to tackle some chores.
The best way to clean the brush is to remove the dust from the brush with your hand or to use an old hairbrush. If the bristles have lost their shape you can wet them in lukewarm water and reshape whilst damp.

BRUSH CARE: With a little simple care, your brush will age beautifully and last for years. Clean your brush with soap and warm water, and hang to dry with bristles down. We recommend oiling the wood on occasion with food-grade oil. Allow the oil to absorb before your next use.

Handmade by a husband and wife team in Philadelphia. They use wood from old-growth trees, which lived for many, many years packed in dense North American forests surrounded by other trees—the denser the forest, the slower the growth, the tighter the grain. The trees were cut down sometime in the early to mid 1800s and turned into homes.

Our baskets and hampers are handmade by the loving hands of global village artisans. These Senegalese baskets are made with age-old weaving techniques passed down from generation to generation. It takes the women two days to finish a single large hamper. They work from home, usually weaving under mango trees in the late afternoon and evening.
Once the basket is finished the men in the village help with transportation and packing. It then travels 6,347 miles to us where it's packaged up and sent off to its new home. The entire process allows our artisans to extend their market from local to global, allowing them the opportunity for independence and empowerment. Thank you for supporting their work and allowing their traditions to be passed down through families and into the global marketplace. Together we are helping individuals in one of the world's least developed countries provide for their families with healthy working conditions and a path to economic independence.
