Wipe away the dust – with wool.

The fibres of wool contain lanolin, which picks up dust remarkably well. A family firm in Vermont (now in the fourth generation) have made good use of this scientific fact and constructed a mop that will remove every fleck of dust from tiles, laminated surfaces or parquet floors. The multi-coloured wool mop is clipped on to a curved steel wire. Every now and then the dust can be simply shaken out of the mop. Wash in cold water after use and hang out to dry. It should give at least 5 years of normal use. Hand-made apart from handle and attachment clip. From Vermont, U.S.A.

Note.

The wool fibres vary in colour. The handle attachment thread does not correspond to European norms: it is necessary therefore to order the American handle.
