Originally
made to keep miniature bonsai trees tidy and immaculate, this small
broom will keep workshop surfaces tidy and free of surface- and
mind-cluttering debris.
The
stiff bristles brush away larger bits rather than soft dust. Use it to
clean up eraser rubbings, bits of cut paper, carved remains from
woodcuts, sawdust, leather scraps, snipped threads and other scattered fragments.
Each
of the fine palm fibers are carefully lined up then bound with metal
wire to form a handle that fans out into the broom bristles. Its simple,
traditional design feels like neatness itself — in case you need the
inspiration to keep your workspace well-tended.
Keep
this around desks, craft tables and workshops. Use it like you would a
broom. This is made from palm fiber, so it won’t disintegrate at the
first brush with moisture, but best not to get it soaking wet, and let it air
dry completely if it does.
These sorts of brushes are used all over Japan to keep the forests of tiny, potted bonsai trees tidy and immaculate. This broom does what larger ones do, except in miniature, cleaning up tiny pruned branches and the smallest leaves, and leveling out square-inch patches of topsoil.
