Im Besengebiet / Field of Brooms food als sein Vater bei einemA tribute to the art of hand brooms. In the Bernese Oberland and other places throughout Switzerland, women make hand brooms from moor grass. Similar brooms are to be found in countries such as Greece, Spain, China, India and Ghana, as well as on the Cook Islands. The oldest examples, more than 3000 years old, are from Egypt. Given that the material used seems to be of no value, the artistry with which these everyday objects are made is astonishing.
