Bamboo Brush Holder, Round Wooden Toothbrush and Makeup Brush Cup for Bathroom Counter and Vanity
Bamboo Brush Holder, Round Wooden Toothbrush and Makeup Brush Cup for Bathroom Counter and Vanity
A plain bamboo cup that reads as an object on the counter, not a bathroom accessory.
Details
This bamboo brush holder is a round cup with a plain outer face and an open top: no pattern, no lettering, no lid. On the counter it reads as a small wooden pot, not a bathroom accessory. Round means a handful of toothbrushes or makeup brushes spread out rather than jamming against a flat side. There is nothing to break and nothing to peel.
By the bathroom sink it is the toothbrush holder for the household; on a dressing table or vanity it holds makeup brushes handle-down so the bristles stay open. Pair it with a second cup for cotton swabs, or a small wooden tray underneath for drips. Bamboo goes with white ceramics, marble-effect counters and chrome, and matches the bamboo soap dish and brush set you may already have.
You get a single round bamboo cup, light in the hand. Bamboo, a grass with a dense straight grain, handles humidity better than most wood if it gets the chance to dry. Tip it out every week or so, since wet toothbrushes drip and water collects at the bottom. Wipe the inside and stand it upside down until dry. No dishwasher, and no sitting in a puddle on the counter. A dab of oil restores the color if it fades.

Why it earns its place
Plain outside
No pattern, no lettering, no lid. It sits on the counter like a small wooden pot rather than a bathroom fitting.
Toothbrushes or makeup brushes
Round, so a handful of brushes fan out rather than jamming against a flat side. Works on a vanity as well as by the basin.
Plain bamboo
Light in the hand, warm to look at, and it copes with a damp room as long as it gets emptied and dried now and then.
In your home
By the bathroom basin for the household's toothbrushes, or on a dressing table holding makeup brushes handle-down so the bristles stay open. On a vanity it pairs well with a second cup for cotton buds or a small wooden tray underneath to catch drips.
Bamboo sits comfortably next to white ceramics, marble-effect counters and chrome, and it matches the bamboo soap dishes and brush sets most people already own. It is the kind of object that makes a cluttered counter look decided rather than busy.
Materials and quality
The cup is round bamboo with a plain outer face and an open top. There is nothing to break and nothing to peel. Bamboo is a grass with a dense, straight grain that handles humidity better than most wood, provided it gets the chance to dry out, which is why the description tells you to empty it now and then. What you get is a single round cup, ready for a family's toothbrushes or a set of makeup brushes.
Care and everyday use
Tip it out and let it dry every week or so; wet toothbrushes drip and the bottom of any cup collects water. Wipe the inside with a cloth, stand it upside down until dry, then put it back. Do not put it in the dishwasher or leave it sitting in a puddle on the counter. A dab of oil restores the colour if it fades.
Good to know
Does water collect in the bottom?
Anything that holds wet brushes will. Empty and dry it now and then and it stays fresh.
Can I use it for makeup brushes?
Yes, it is meant for either toothbrushes or makeup brushes. Put the brushes in handle first so the heads stay open.
Will it go mouldy in a bathroom?
Bamboo copes with a damp room if it is emptied and dried now and then. Left permanently wet, anything will.
