Finnish Looped Dish-Wash Whisk, Rice Root
£16.50
Ex Tax: £13.75
A stiff looped scrubbing whisk made of rice root — the stripped and dried roots of zatacon, a Mexican desert grass. These makes excellent pot scrubbers, with a light scouring action, but are also highly effective at removing mud from amongst the tread of winter boots or wellies. Hand bound with flax twine by the visually impaired craftspeople of a Vantaa based Finnish cooperative. Measures between 13cm and 15cm.
Care Advice
Keep dry when not in use. In the case of wet-use brushes, please shake any excess moisture from the bristles, and dry hanging up or on a surface with the bristles facing down. Clean brushes only when necessary with a little dish soap and hot water, making sure to dry thoroughly. Condition the wooden surface every now and then with a beeswax furniture polish, or mineral oil, to prevent cracks or splitting.
