Leather rug beaters such as this were especially famous in the English colonies. Before the carpet cleaner was invented, carpets needed very powerful beatings to get rid of dust. For the backsides of defiant persons on the other hand, it hardly required any effort. A few light strokes very quickly transformed naughty people into gentle lambs. So beware: This is a nasty instrument, which is easy to handle, but is nevertheless not suitable for beginners!
The handle, braided with leather, is slightly flexible in it's entire length. The tautly braided loop reverberates strongly and has a heavy impact, even when struck lightly. Measurements of loop approx. 13 x 5 centimetres Total length approx. 56 centimetres
