Primitive Handmade Horsehair Drafting Brush cast polar bear which is about how oldI've had told this wonderful old handmade brush with long, snake like handle is a drafting brush, used for sweeping eraser crumbs off of blueprints, and indeed it would be useful for that though also be good for cobweb sweeping in high places! I just love how primitive and sculptural an object is, with those great wire stitches holding the bristles in place. This one has a hole near the end, making it all the easier to hang from the wall to admire! 24
