Can a broom be sculptural? Imbali makes a strong case. Its finely fanned bristles, woven from sustainably harvested lutindzi grass, give it a light, fluid form, while the carefully wrapped, triple-headed handle adds a touch of structure. A collaboration between Siyaphambili Handcraft’s artisans in Eswatini and European designers Agathe Pautrot and Delphine Meriaux, it’s made to sweep, but just as likely to be admired.
"Imbali" means "Flower" in SiSwati — a name chosen by the artisans to reflect its graceful shape.
