The holder has a hollow grip that closes around your hand like the hilt of a sword. You find yourself calling “En garde” as you pull it out. This version is acid yellow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eA toilet brush that can stay in sight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost toilet brushes get hidden away. Not this one. The clean design and straight lines make it an object that deserves to be seen in any cloakroom. That was exactly the idea behind it: to give an everyday object the attention it does not normally get, and turn it into something remarkable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe brush tapers and sits on a long stem, so you can clean deep into the bowl without wetting your hand. The holder catches the water from the brush and is easy to clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eAcid Yellow\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcid yellow is the colour for people who do not mince words. A hard, bright yellow you can see from across the room — which is exactly the intention. Where the other three colours fit in with the bathroom, this one sets the tone. In an otherwise white cloakroom it becomes the talking point all by itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eBrush worn out?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the brush wears out you simply replace it, so the holder lasts for years.

Heller in 1993 to design a toilet brush, which came to market in 1995. Starck was fascinated by the American passion for cleaning and had long wanted to design a bathroom accessory. “It is a product I have wanted to make for 20 years,” he said at the time in the New York Times. “Designing a toilet brush would be the most modest service I could offer. I always thought it would be the apotheosis of my career.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe French designer and architect is known worldwide for his mix of humour and elegance, in everything from furniture to entire interiors. He approached Heller because that company could build the moulds his design required. In 2000 the Excalibur entered the permanent collection of MoMA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter its success in the late nineties the brush left the market. This is the reissue, now made entirely of recycled plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heller","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49879707418968,"sku":"HELLER-222-18-01","price":68.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0505\/9044\/9818\/files\/Heller_Excalibur_Acid_Yellow-designmarket.today_A.jpg?v=1725719946","url":"https:\/\/designmarket.today\/en\/products\/toilet-brush-excalibur-acid-yellow-philippe-starck-heller","provider":"Designmarket.today","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
