Fern and black bamboo outdoor broom with thick fibers for thorough sweeping
This is a long-handled fern broom made by Broom Craft in a workshop in Wakayama. It is a type that can be moved widely while standing. The fibers are thick and strong, so it is recommended for entrances, balconies, and outdoors.
Fern broom that is strong against large outdoor debris and mud
Outdoor cleaning is a tough environment for brooms, as fallen leaves and other plant debris contain pebbles, sand, dirt, and mud, and can even get wet. Fern has slightly thicker and stronger fibers, which allow it to catch outdoor dirt and dust. It is suitable for use at the entrance or outdoors, from balconies and wooden decks to concrete, tiles, artificial turf, and natural grass. The long-handled 5-ball type () is an easy-to-use size that can be held firmly with both hands and moved firmly, allowing you to clean large areas efficiently, and by using the tip vertically, you can also sweep out dirt that has accumulated in narrow spaces. The bundles that hold the ferns together are called "balls." The more balls there are, the wider the broom will be, and the larger the area you can sweep.
A unique manufacturing method based on Kyoto tradition
Brooms are household items that have been commonly used for a long time. Broom making was once practiced in Kyoto, but it disappeared in modern times. Broom Craft's brooms are made using a unique method that has been refined after studying the traditional Kyoto manufacturing method. The handles are made from black bamboo from Wakayama. They are beautiful to look at, and when hung they blend in with the scenery of modern balconies and wooden decks.
