Japanese Dustpan & Brush set
$145.00
Takada Co., established in Wakayama Prefecture, has been crafting high-quality Tawashi brushes for over 70 years. The bark of the windmill palm tree has been a familiar material in Japan since ancient times, valued for its flexibility and soft texture. This natural material has long been used in brooms and scrub brushes known as “Tawashi.”
Here, the fine, supple fibers of the windmill palm enable these brushes to sweep away dirt and dust without scratching surfaces. In Japan, where cleanliness is a key virtue, such brooms have been a part of everyday life since ancient times. Their simple yet beautiful form is the result of a relentless pursuit of functionality. Made to last 10 to 20 years, depending on use, they only improve with age. This hand brush comes paired with a teak dustpan.
