The right tool for mushrooms

Beautiful handmade mushroom knife made of stainless steel and oiled birch wood is equally useful when hunting for mushrooms in the forest as it is when harvesting in your own garden. The hardened, stainless steel blade cuts the mushrooms cleanly and the horsehair brush at the end of the handle cleans the harvest from earth crumbs and crawling animals.

STORY

Today Iris Hantverk consists of 17 employees. The main business is the brush binding factory in Sandsborgsvägen, Enskede. Here, six visually impaired craftsmen from different cultures make brushes in the old Swedish tradition. Since August 2012, the company has been run by Richard Sparrenhök and Sara Edhäll. They care a lot about the craftsmen and the survival of brush-making. They believe that many like them appreciate the feel and quality of a hand-drawn brush made from natural materials.

Their vision is to revive the traditional profession of brush binding. By producing functional products with good design, combined with the quality of natural materials and the solid technique of the craftsmen.
