Oval Body Brush

Made of oil-treated oak wood and horse hair, this oval body brush produces a soft, satisfying lather when used with soap and is handcrafted by Iris Hantverk in Sweden following traditional techniques developed almost 200 years ago.

Made of Iris Hantverk is a manufacturing company with roots in Sweden's visual impairment movement. In the late 19th century a group of visually-impaired craftsmen from across the country came together to establish a brush-making collective called De Blindas Förening (The Blind Association). The group was originally formed to provide equal opportunities to earn a living for the blind and partially sighted, as well as developing specialized brush making techniques. Iris Hantverk continues this social enterprise today, as well as the tradition of crafting brushes by hand using natural and environmentally sustainable materials.

Care instructions:
After use, dry brush-side down to prevent water from lingering on the wood which can be sensitive to moisture.
