Manila Sailors Whisks are decorative and functional handcrafted in Nova Scotia, Canada on the shores of the Bay of Fundy. Various sizes of whisks were used aboard ships to sweep the decks and clean the galleys. The larger whisks are great for workshop clean up and cleaning wood stoves. The smaller sizes are used to sweep away cobwebs or simply hung as a decoration. All whisks are made from traditional Manila ships rope. Blonde/Brown in color. Sailors whisks are available in three sizes based on the size of rope used to tie the knots - 1/2", 3/4" and 1".
