plus it's useful for everything

Straw Whisk Brush with Yellow Painted Wood Handle carved stamp Another beautiful boxAnother super satisfying old brush, this one I think c. 1930s, with a terrific yellow painted handle strung with a loop for hanging. The handle is perfectly worn and weathered, with some paint loss, lightening, and darkening here and there, and the straw bristles tightly wrapped (I believe by hand) with wire and in great shape. Super useful still for all sorts of things including just hanging on the wall! Of a nice size with a good weight: 8 1 2" long
