Description
Goat hair is soft and supple, ideal for body cleansing.
The handle is made of magnolia wood.
Made by skilled craftsmen.
“Hake” are brushes formed by separate pieces of wood. After drilling small holes in one piece of wood, they attach the strands of hair by hand because it is the only way that they can ensure they are tight enough. After this they bond the wood with the main piece. After this the hairs are cut to symmetry.
Uno Hake brushes started in 1917. Currently Ms. Chieko Uno works with her daughter Michiyo to continue their family craft. These brushes have been modernised to have an array of modern uses. For home use, to clean your face, body, clothes, shoes, etc.
When modern clothing was warn more commonly than traditional kimonos, Japanese didn't really know how to care western suits, knits, etc. This brush company began developing brushes for very specific needs.
To achieve this the type of animal hair need to be chosen and prepared for each product. Each type of hair has a different texture needs to be treated with oil.
Material: Goat hair / Magnolia wood (handle)
How to use:
Moisten the brush
Gently lather with soap and brush in the palm of your hand
When it bubbles, put it on your body and use it gently like drawing a circle.
Rinse cleanly after cleansing and remove soap and water
Remove moisture with a towel, and then adjust the hair and store in a well-ventilated place with the hair facing down or hanging

JAPAN-BEST
Japan-Best is first and foremost a story about Japanese craftsmen, with the influence of contemporary design. Inspired by the timeless beauty of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, and their ability to adapt to our modern lifestyle. Passionate about the stories behind each product; the skills of the craftsmen, or the long tradition of an object left unchanged for generations - yet somehow remaining contemporary.
Japan-Best is a collection of Japanese brands, which have been selected for the originality of their design, the quality of their production, the fact that their production is “Made in Japan”, and the long history that they maintain, quite often for several generations.
All sizing information is for guide purposes only.
Where possible we provide individual product size guides. If these aren't
available we provide a generic brand size guide. Individual garments may
differ from these measurements and we cannot guarantee the item you receive
will match these measurements exactly.
Many brands also have a level of tolerance in size differences
between the same item - this is usually 0.5 inches.
If no size guide is shown below, it means there is not one available at
present for this item and it will be added if/when it becomes available.
