This is a shoe tawashi brush made from shuro palm fibers.
Tawashi brushes made from natural shuro palm have fibers with just the right firmness and flexibility. They can be safely used on delicate items such as glassware, cups, or non-stick pans without scratching them.
When carefully selected, shuro fibers are soft enough to use even for body care, gentle to the touch on the skin.
Their soft texture and resilient bounce are unique to shuro palm.
A tawashi is also an important tool for caring for baskets and colanders. Its bristles easily slip into the weave, sweeping away fine dust and scrubbing out hidden dirt.
Even basket artisans who work with akebi vine or wild grape often say, “Nothing cleans a basket like a tawashi.” We also recommend this brush for basket care.
Whether scrubbing dishes or vegetables, or polishing baskets and colanders, the tawashi has long remained an essential tool in the kitchen and home.
