African Broom (Igbale)

Bring home the authentic West African cleaning tool with the African Broom, traditionally known as Igbale (Yoruba) or sometimes the "stick broom." Handcrafted from natural, durable raffia or palm fronds, this broom is superior for sweeping both coarse, outdoor surfaces and fine, indoor dirt. It is lightweight, flexible, and essential for maintaining a truly clean, traditional African home.

• Approximate Length: 32 inches (or 80 cm).

• Approximate Weight: 400g - 450g (1 pound).

• Material: 100% Natural Dried Fibre (Raffia, Palm Frond).

• Use-Case: Sweeping bare floors, rugs, porches, and outdoor areas.

The unique bundle design of the Igbale allows it to reach into corners and crevices that modern plastic brooms often miss. It is an eco-friendly cleaning alternative that embodies tradition and effectiveness.

Usage & Care Suggestions: For best results, use the broom in short, quick strokes. To prolong the life of your Igbale, store it vertically in a dry place. The broom's fibres will gradually soften with use, improving its efficiency over time.
