Besom  brooms are the broom  associated with witches and are traditionally made of twigs tied to a larger pole. As a result, the besom is rounded instead of flat.

The bristles can be made of many materials including, but not limited to straw, herbs, or twigs.  We use finest Ash for the pole and bamboo fronds for the sweep - so much more efficient than birch twigs.

Supposedly, an upward pointed besom (bristles up), especially over or near a doorway, will help protect the house from evil spirits or negative energies.

'Besom' is also a common Scottish expression, a noun used to describe 'playful' little girls "dinnae pu' ya brother's hair, ya wee besom" or a woman of low moral standing, a hussy.
