Vintage Miniature Broom or Whisk Brush with Twisted Wire Handle

This object is a small-scale miniature broom or whisk brush, measuring approximately 4 to 5 inches in total length. The handle is constructed from two strands of twisted metal wire, which appear to be coated in a faded green or teal pigment, showing significant oxidation and loss of finish consistent with age. The terminal end of the wire is formed into a teardrop-shaped loop for hanging or ease of grip. The brush head is composed of natural, stiff fiber bristles, likely broomcorn or a similar organic straw material, which are secured to the wire handle by a series of tight wraps. The bristles exhibit a light tan to medium brown color with visible frayed ends and minor loss, indicating previous use or historical shelf wear. There are small orange-brown deposits near the binding of the bristles, which could be aged adhesive, resin, or localized oxidation. Based on the construction and material patina, this item likely dates back to the mid-20th century. It exhibits a utilitarian folk-art quality and was likely intended as a specialty cleaning tool for small spaces, like a typewriter or sewing machine, or as a decorative kitchen accessory. No discernible maker's marks or stamps are visible on the twisted wire frame.
