The Laundress Stain Brush

Yes. The horsehair bristles are soft enough to safely clean delicate items like silk, wool, and cashmere without snagging or damaging the fibers.

While a toothbrush can work in a pinch, its bristles are often too stiff and can fray delicate fabrics. This brush is specifically designed with softer, natural bristles that provide effective cleaning power while remaining gentle on your clothing.

The handle is made of wood, which is durable and comfortable to hold. While it is designed for laundry use, we recommend wiping it dry after use rather than soaking it in water to maintain the integrity of the wood.

Rinse the bristles thoroughly with cool water and a mild detergent after each use. Shake off excess water and let it air dry with the bristles facing down or lying flat to keep the brush in top condition.

Some minor shedding is normal with natural bristles, especially when the brush is new. Over time, this should subside as the brush settles into your routine.
