Kamenoko Tawashi
Established in Tokyo in 1907, Kamenoko Tawashi produces durable, biodegradable scrubbing brushes handmade from woven palm fibers. Ideal for scouring residue from pots and pans, these industry-standard kitchen accessories are also effective in removing soil from root vegetables like carrots, radishes, and potatoes. The compound brand name—kamenoko means “small turtle” and tawashi means “scrubber”—references the brushes’ rounded shapes, connection to water, and longevity.
