The very first brooms were made by gathering a group of twigs together with a cord. Round in shape, they did the job. Gradually, twigs were replaced with broomcorn and the true round broom was born. We flattened the sweeping edge of this broom, cut it on an angle to reach into corners, and dipped it in madder dye. It measures 10” in length.
