The Shakers were extremely practical and became very well known for their

innovative labor-saving inventions by concentrating on form and function.

The best known result is from their invention of the broom press

that was patented in 1878 and turned the here-to-for round

broom into a flat broom.

Shaker style has become a hallmark of excellence around the

world.  Richard Moore carries on that legacy with his Shaker

style brooms.

All the brooms are made in the Shaker tradition of simplicity

with durability reflected in their construction. The hardwood

handles bring function and the beauty of nature together in

a product that is as old as our country's founding.
