Iris Hantverk Scrubbing
Everyday Dish Brush, Beech and Tampico
Swedish dish brush with a beech handle and stiff tampico fiber bristles. The head unscrews and takes an Iris Hantverk beech and tampico refill when worn.
Good to know: Iris Hantverk also makes this brush with a horsehair head, which is animal-derived; this listing is the tampico version. The head attaches with a metal fitting, and refill heads are sold separately.

Why we picked it
Iris Hantverk is a Swedish brush maker, and this Everyday model is its plain kitchen brush: a beech handle and a round beech head set with tampico fiber. Tampico comes from desert agave, and Iris Hantverk calls this the stiffer of its two heads, good for slightly coarser cleaning without scratching dishes. When the bristles wear down, you swap in a refill head of the same beech and tampico, so the handle stays in use. Skip the horsehair version if you want a fully plant-based brush.
