Brooms Scheumack Broom Company uses only “broom corn” and sassafras or bass wood handles (unpeeled). These are the finest brooms I have ever used. Not only are they functional but they are also a work of art and come in natural, rusty brown or black. It was considered good luck to give a new broom to a newly-married couple and bad luck to bring an old broom into a new home.
