Looped rattan reed gives the Heritage Rug Beater its recognizable openwork head and long handle. Made in Germany, it brings a traditional cleaning tool to suitable sturdy rugs, with an attractive enough form to hang in the utility room between uses.

“The rug’s care instructions would be my starting point; a traditional tool still needs to suit the particular textile.”
-Mrs. Mayfair

Maker / Heritage

Founded in Woodstock, Vermont, in 2012, Farmhouse Pottery brings a working potter’s eye to everyday housewares. Founder James Zilian’s training in ceramics and years designing for Simon Pearce inform the restrained shapes; English studio pottery and the Japanese idea of wabi-sabi inform an affection for visible process and small variations. The signature Silo forms take their lines from Vermont’s farm silos, pairing white glaze with revealed clay. From that starting point, the collection extends into complementary tools and textiles, chosen to make a useful, tactile whole at home.
