Based in Wakayama Prefecture in southwestern Japan, otherwise known as the country’s spiritual heartland, Takada is revitalizing the nearly extinct craft of making scrub brushes and brooms with organically-farmed and locally-harvested windmill palm fibers — an ancestral tradition dating back to the Edo period. Every product in the collection is expertly handcrafted using only the finest handpicked materials, ensuring the highest level of quality.
