Bone-Handled Toothbrush
Tooth brushes have
been made out of all sorts of
materials. In many cultures and many time periods, people used a stick
with the ends pounded or mangled to form bristles.
When the first toothbrushes were made by sticking bristles into a
separate handle, all the materials were natural: hog bristles on a bone
or bamboo handle, for instance.

This toothbrush is made of natural bristles in a bone handle.
(Note: the bristles are very
stiff. If you like a soft toothbrush, this is not the brush for you.)
