The Homestead Broom | Handmade | 55

This is a 55-inch broom made by hand. It's the kind of thing you buy when you're done with plastic handles that snap and bristles that give up after three sweeps. Proper broom corn, proper handle, proper construction — the way brooms used to be made before we decided everything should be disposable.

Long enough that you could lean on it like a staff if you were the kind of person who leans on staffs. Which, after you own this broom for a while, you might become. Something about holding a five-foot handmade broom makes you feel like you could narrate your own sweeping.
