Coconut Fibre Tawashi = Scrub Off
When You Want To Completely Peel Skin Of A Vegetable (Example : Carrot, Potato, Etc), The Strong “Coconut Husk Palm” Type Is Recommended.

With The Moderate Hardness Of Fibre’S Head, The Palm Material’S Strong Point In Washing Is To Scraping Out Dirt. It Is Suitable For Taking Out The Dirt And A Thin Skin Of Roots Vegetables, And Also The Dirt That Get Into The Colander’S Mesh.

Why Kamenoko Tawashi?

There Are Many Producers Making Tawashi Now But Kamenoko Is The Original. Because Of This All Their Tawashi Are Carefully Hand Made And Inspected By Senior Craftsmen. You Can Tell The Quality Of The Craftsmanship From The First Use Of Kamenoko.

History Of The Tawashi:

When Western Shoes First Started Selling In Japan, Unlike Japanese Wooden Shoes, Western Style Shoes Brought In A Lot Of Dirt From Outside. It Was Therefore Necessary For Households To Have A Door Mat To Keep The Outside Dirt From Entering The House. The Founder And First President, Nishio Shozaemon, Was Producing Mats Using Hemp And Palm.

During This Time In Japan We Still Used Wood Burning Stoves In The Kitchen. The Wood And Charcoal Left The Pots And Pans Very Black With Soot And Were Difficult To Clean. Mr Shozaemon’S Wife Took One Of His Door Mats And Cut It And Placed A Wire Around It To Use For Scrubbing. Thus The First Tawashi Brush Was Invented. They Agreed That The Shape Was Like A Turtle (Kame In Japanese) And Since Turtles Like Water It Seemed Like An Appropriate Name. Kamenoko Means “Turtle Child).

Mr. From 1907, Create And Bring Out The “Tawashi” To The Market. From Then, They Have Created Many Cleaning Products For Household Work.

In 2013, This Brush Gets The Long Life Design Award As A Major Product Hand Made Since 1907. Quality, Durability: Chose The Best Size For The Palm Of Your Hand.
