Andrée Jardin Heritage Ash Nail Brush
Keep your nails tidy in style. A pleasure to display on any vanity or bathroom countertop. Gardeners or anyone who works with their hands will appreciate this nail brush with a shorter row of bristles for cleaning under nails. Made of thermo-heated ash, a wood naturally treated with high-temperature steam. This process gives the wood its natural brown caramel color, resistance to humidity, and incomparable longevity. Handmade in France. Inspired by the vintage toiletries of French grandmothers past.
Since 1947 Andrée Jardin has created "de vrais balais qui durent" (translation "real brushes that last"). Andrée Jardin is reviving the craft of what were once called "Paris articles": hairbrushes, clothes brushes, house brushes, and brooms... Promising simplicity, quality, and durability, Andrée Jardin designs and manufactures essentials for the home that are equal parts useful, well-made, and beautiful.
- Andrée Jardin designs natural, long-lasting household accessories and carries on the century-old traditions of the brush industry. In addition to making household cleaning tools more beautiful and sophisticated, Andrée Jardin hopes to help promote French craftsmanship.
- Brosserie Julio (manufacturer of the Andrée Jardin brand) carries the label EPV (Entreprise du Patrimoine Vivant). This is a French government award, given to companies demonstrating excellent craftsmanship and industrial know-how.
- The handcrafted wood, both beech and heat-treated ash, are locally sourced from sustainably managed forests.
- The bristles are made of natural materials—animal hair or plant fibers.
- Andrée Jardin's production methods, in small batches, remain artisanal even today. The company is convinced this is the best way to fight against low quality disposable products and systems.
- By buying Andrée Jardin products, you give a real meaning to your purchases and say no to today’s trends of waste, gadget products and broken promises.
it’s pretty and i didn’t know the wood would give off a nice scent every time i use it, but the bristles are almost too soft to get between the skin of my fingertip and my nail
