For the inside of drinking glasses, wine glasses, water bottles, vases and anything else with a narrow neck. Medium-stiff sisal bristles are strong enough for dried-on food but will not scratch delicate glass, and the 27cm handle keeps your hands out of the hot water.
Key Features
- Natural sisal bristles. Medium-stiff and non-scratch.
- Safe on delicate glassware. And on ceramics.
- 27cm long with a 6cm head. So it reaches the bottom of a bottle.
- More hygienic than a sponge. Nothing to trap bacteria, mould or odours.
- Fully compostable. When the bristles wear out.
Pūrē Standard
- No plastic bristles, which is the whole point. A nylon brush sheds microplastics down the sink every time you use it.
- It replaces the sponge, and that is a hygiene upgrade. Sponges trap and hold germs, mould and odours because they stay damp. A brush dries out between uses.
- The long handle is a small kindness. It keeps your hands out of hot water and detergent, which is worth a lot if your skin is at all reactive.
- It composts. Wood and plant fibre, so it goes in the compost at the end rather than to landfill.
- Made in China exclusively for Murchison-Hume. Which they disclose plainly.
- Where we would like more. The brand describe it simply as made with natural plant fibres and do not name the timber used for the handle.

Our Take
27cm of sisal that reaches the bottom of a bottle without scratching the good glassware. It replaces the sponge, which is a hygiene upgrade as much as a plastic one: sponges stay damp and hold everything.

Good to know
Frequently asked
Will it scratch my glassware?
No. The sisal bristles are medium-stiff, strong enough for dried-on food but non-scratch on delicate glass and ceramics.
Is it plastic free?
Yes. Natural plant fibre bristles on a wooden handle, no plastic parts, so nothing sheds microplastics down the sink.
Is it more hygienic than a sponge?
Yes. Sponges stay damp and trap bacteria, mould and odours. A brush dries out between uses, so there is nothing to harbour.
How long is it?
27cm with a 6cm head, which reaches the bottom of a water bottle and keeps your hands out of the hot water and detergent.
What happens at the end?
Compost it. It is fully biodegradable once the bristles are worn.
What wood is the handle?
Murchison-Hume describe it simply as made with natural plant fibres and do not name the timber, so we cannot tell you specifically.
