Know before you buy
This whisk broom is designed for light-duty indoor cleaning, such as sweeping crumbs off countertops, dusting delicate surfaces, or clearing debris from small, hard-to-reach areas.
The vibrant colors are achieved through the natural characteristics of the lutindzi grass, which shifts in tone from deep purples to warm reds and golds. Because these are natural fibers, each broom will feature unique color variations.
The broom features a compact, finely detailed design intended to be displayed. You can easily hang it on a hook or keep it on a shelf as a decorative accent piece.
The broom is handwoven from lutindzi grass and bound with sisal, both of which are sturdy, natural materials. While it is durable enough for regular light cleaning, it should be kept dry to maintain the integrity of the fibers.
Because each broom is handcrafted by artisans in Eswatini, there is a slight variation in length, typically ranging between 13 and 17 inches.
