Stoneware Brush Cleaning Dish

Gentle Bristle Agitation

This sculpted dish is ideal for gently cleaning paintbrushes without stressing the bristles. The subtle ridges are designed to create light agitation when combined with soap and water, helping release pigment from the base of the brush while preserving the shape and integrity of the fibers.

Rather than scrubbing or pressing bristles flat against a hard surface, the curved channels allow you to swirl and glide the brush softly, mimicking the natural movement of painting. This reduces fraying, bending, and long-term damage.

In the Willow Wolfe studio, this dish is used as part of a slow, careful cleaning process: light pressure, small circular motions, and frequent rinsing. It encourages better brush habits and extends the life of your tools.
