HISTORIC BROOMS

Click on small picture to see an enlargement.
Our brooms are hand made using antique equipment. We use 100% broomcorn in our brooms (no cheap fillers). Natural (tan color) broomcorn is used. These brooms are as historically correct as we have been able to research. Dates are from pre-1800 to 1960. For present day brooms, see 'Broom' page.
 | 100% top quality broomcorn used in every broom (broomcorn is the VERY best sweeping material). |
| Hand-crafted using antique equipment. |
| All stitching done on historic brooms is done with linen twine. |
