Andree Jardin - Traditional 4 Piece Dishwashing Box

A kitchen sink looks best uncluttered. It looks even better when your dish-cleaning tools are chic and simple, like the ones in this kit from French brush experts Andrée Jardin.

The Traditional 4 piece Dishwashing Box has all of your (elevated) basics: A long-handled brush made from water-resistant heat-treated French beech, a kitchen towel made of 50% linen and 50% cotton, a soft round sponge for your delicate dishware, and a hardy copper scrubber for the tougher pots and pans.

This set also makes an excellent housewarming gift or gift for the homemaker. 

Set Includes:

• 1 Sandled Dish Brush
• 1 Stainless Steel Sponge
• 1 Pebble Sponge
• 1 Linen/Cotton Dish Towel
• 30cm x 14cm x 7cm

Andrée Jardin brushes are all made with locally sourced beech and heat-treated ash from sustainably managed forests. Everything is produced in small batches, using artisanal techniques learned from founder Georges-René Julio, who started his career in brush-making 100 years ago in Nantes.

ABOUT ANDRÉE JARDIN

A century ago, Andrée Jardin’s future husband, Georges Renée Julio, started out as an apprentice brush maker in Nantes. In 1947, he opened his own factory and the adventure began. Over the years the brush factory supplied more and more industrial clients, and from father to son, the company became specialised in tailor-made brushes. 

With the arrival of plastic and the beginning of globalisation, what used to be called "Parisian goods" started to lose their value: hair brushes, toilet brushes, toothbrushes, make-up brushes, cloth brushes, cleaning brushes and brooms. To such a point that today it is still difficult to find an authentic broom, handbrush, or, even more, a real dust brush. Determined to refute this sad state of affairs, Jean-Baptiste and François-Marie, Andrée’s grandchildren, reissued the mythical brushes with French beechwood frames: Real brushes that last!
