Black broomcorn
Natural broomcorn bristles, dyed a deep, deliberate black.
Handmade by Parker Homestead
Made for
the season.
Natural broomcorn. Dyed black. Bound by hand. A real house broom with enough presence to leave out.
02 / The familiar problem
Most house brooms have one good angle.
The one facing the closet wall.
You make a room feel like autumn. Then finish it with plastic, fluorescent bristles, and a handle built to hide.
The Cinder changes the equation. It brings the material honesty of an old house broom into a black-and-red silhouette that feels right beside the hearth, by the kitchen door, or exactly where you last used it.
This one earns the corner. And then it earns its keep.
Craft study / 4:503 / Tradition, not mass production
No machine tied this.
The bristles are gathered, bound, and stitched the old way: by hand, one broom at a time.
01
Gather
Natural broomcorn forms the working body.
02
Bind
Black-dyed fibers are pulled tight to the handle.
03
Stitch
Cider-red rows hold the shape and make the signature.

04 / Function
Beautiful was never the excuse.
A broom should move the mess. Natural broomcorn flexes across old boards, kitchen floors, and hearthstone, pulling crumbs, leaves, and fireplace grit into line.
