About This Item

• The Horsehair Oak Bath Brush is constructed from hard oak wood with soft horsehair bristles that are hand-wired, rather than glued in; the brush is made to last.
• Horse hair is an excellent material in bathing brushes because it is soft and pliable while it is sturdy and durable and has a certain elasticity
• In the late 1900s century a small brush manufacturing started out in Stockholm; it was a successful movement so successful that it remains today; now, as then, every Iris Hantverk brush is made by hand by visually impaired craftsmen
• Handmade in Sweden from oiled oak and horsehair, this bath brush from Iris Hantverk features a convenient handle; soft and pliable yet very durable, horsehair bristles are ideal for bathing brushes
• Care instructions; allow the brush to dry hanging or standing on the horsehair so that the water is transported away from the wood that is more sensitive to moisture

For more than a hundred years, the Iris Hantverk company has employed visually impaired artisans to handcraft high-quality products using traditional methods. Excellent examples of the Scandinavian ideal of beautiful, everyday objects, these brushes are designed with both beauty and utility in mind. Each brush is constructed of hardwoods with natural bristles that are hand wired, rather than glued in. Designed to provide years of use and an ecological alternative to plastic throwaway brushes.

Recent User Experience

Finally after 30 years of daily usage, having to replace it.Tried several others before i re-found the one and only original and therefore can honestly say, it's the best.The wiring approach means no glue used, so won't fall apart in hot water.No plastic plate holding the hairs in means pieces don't break & fall out over time.No non-needed cloth strap means it's not going to get mouldy, or the tacks holding it in won't rust over the cloth.Non detachable head means it's not going to constantly slip off.Long enough handle means you'll reach in between your shoulder blades.Horse hair (as opposed to nylon or boar or grass ) means you'll absorb water to lather.For the record: nylon doesn't absorb water, and if it's not exactly the right stiffness for you, it will never change. Also, nylon curls up after a while due to hot water. And the ends of the nylon brush are cut square and sharp -- they micro-damage your skin (compared to naturally rounded/soft ended horse hair) and will cause acne to get worse rather than better. Same for loufa's brushes btw.Boar is good too -- but too stiff for me (better for scrubing the floor I'd think -- unless you like exfoliating the top layer or two of your skin every morning).So this brush is really perfect, and will last the next 30 years.If you want Scandinavian clear skin, skip the bamboo handled/nylon/grass bristle'd brushes that won't help you one bit, and get the best. This one.
