About me
Since the late 1800s, Iris Hantverk has been manufacturing household brushes and accessories in Stockholm. Today, 11 employees and six visually impaired craftsmen remain, keeping old Swedish traditions alive. The company name ‘Iris’ refers to the flat and ring-shaped membrane of the eye. Each accessory is handmade by a visually impaired craftsman, bringing a whole new meaning to the term handcrafted.
Caring for me
The brush is cleaned by dipping in hot water with mild detergent. After use, shake out excess water from the brush and hang to dry, or dry standing on the horsehair so that the water is transported away from the wood. Never soak the wooden handle; the handle may also be oiled occasionally.
