Know before you buy
The soft, flexible horse hair is ideal for delicate surfaces that scratch easily, such as polished wood, glass, or fine furniture. It excels at lifting fine dust from flat surfaces rather than scrubbing heavy grime.
Gently shake out the brush to remove loose dust. If the bristles require a deeper clean, wash them with a mild soap and lukewarm water, then hang the brush by its leather loop to air dry completely, ensuring the bristles face downward.
The handle is treated with natural oils and wax, which provide protection against moisture and daily wear. However, it is not designed to be submerged in water for long periods, so it is best to keep the wood dry.
As a natural, handmade product, you may notice a few loose hairs during the first few uses. This is normal and will subside quickly as the brush settles into its routine.
Horse hair is naturally soft and dense, allowing it to trap fine dust particles rather than just pushing them around. Unlike synthetic bristles, which can sometimes create static, horse hair provides a gentle, effective sweep that is safer for delicate finishes.
