👉 Swashers are a type of decorative device used in the United Kingdom and Ireland to create a dramatic effect, often seen on stage or in public spaces. They consist of two parallel ropes tied together, which can be twisted and then swung around each other to create a whirlwind effect. Swashers are typically made from a variety of materials, including wood, metal, and plastic, and can vary in size and complexity depending on the artist's preference.
