Starting with the finest blend of golded taklon hair, each brush is made to work flawlessly, allowing the artist a high degree of control and maximum dexterity. The hair is firm enough to work well with heavy body paints and is a blend of soft hair as well to facilitate excellent shaping to a square edge or a pointed round. Use with virtually any media and especially with acrylics and watercolors. Made by hand, each brush head is fitted into seamless ferrules attached to long or short lacquered wood handles.
