The Umezawa Handmade Tawashi is an eco-friendly gentle scrubbing brush particularly for wooden kitchenware. It is more flexible than ordinary palm scrubbers, as the experienced craftsmen have carefully adjusted the softness of the fibers for its intended purpose.

Tawashi palm scrubbing brushes are essential for cleaning and maintaining natural wooden kitchenware, like the other products that Umezawa sells.

They can scrape out food and dirt trapped deep within the wood fibers, that cannot be removed with a typical sponge, and scrape away the fuzz that appears on wooden kitchenware with age and wearing.

Another common use of this biodegradable brush is to clean the skin of fresh root vegetables such as carrots, radishes, potatoes, etc.

Tawashi scrubbers are essential items in all Japanese households, and with good reason! These versatile, gentle, and eco-friendly brushes have been popular in Japan for over 100 years!
