This travelling brush salesman called at my house in Thailand the other day. He’s quite a colourful character, typical of travelling salesmen around the world.
He rides a tricycle to carry all his wares announcing his presence with an annoying little air horn that sure to grab your attention.
The brushes, like many used in Thailand, are all made from natural materials that include bamboo, reeds and long grasses. The only artificial parts of the product are the colourful bindings applied after manufacture. Great for recycling since 99% of the brush is biodegradable.
If you look closely at the photograph you can see there are several different types pf brush or broom. Coarse ones for the yard, softer short handled ones for tiled floors and long handled brushes for getting up under the eaves of your home.
