Description
Granville Island Broom Co. specializes in the unique art of handcrafted broom making. Sisters Mary and Sarah Schwieger learned to make brooms from their family while growing up in the Kootenay region of BC. The brooms are woven using Shaker methods and are designed to withstand years with regular use. Visitors to the shop can watch broom making in action and learn the history of this rare craft.
Mary and Sarah blend beauty, function, and tradition to create a unique product that will complement any home.
Granville Island Broom Co. makes hand-crafted brooms using traditional Shaker methods. They are designed to be both functional and decorative and will last many years with daily use. The fibre we use to make the brooms is called broomcorn (Sorghum vulgare), which became the standard for making brooms in the early 1800s.
Historically, brooms in North America were round. They were commonly home made by tying together tree branches, grasses, or whatever was available. In the mid 1800s, the Shakers developed the stitched flat broom, which we continue to use today.
