Made of:
Shuro (Japanese Hemp Palm) fibre
Mottled dark bamboo stick (more valuable than normal yellowish bamboo)
bound with copper wire + decorative maroon/gold cord.

These vernacular brooms are made of only carefully selected best quality fibres.
They are skilfully sorted and bundled into rolls, then wrapped tightly with copper wire by fine craftsmanship by artisans from Yamamoto Katsunosuke Shoten.

Shuro bark has thick layers of fibre, and has been used in many ways such as brushes, ropes, nets, marine fittings and thatching roofs, dating back several hundreds years.

The bristles are very flexible yet highly durable and long lasting. Each string of fibre is thin, soft, elastic and catches dust well, so it is ideal to sweep a tricky corner of the room. See less
