Made in the tradition of an old world bristle brush with a modern twist by utilizing only the best quality synthetic bristle filaments that taper with the natural curve of an interlocking natural bristle. These extremely durable and strong synthetic bristles brushes are excellent for heavy body acrylics, oils, caseins, and water-soluble oils, and are ideal for moving large amounts of color in bold strokes, or for working with thickening mediums. Brushes maintain shape and stiffness, particularly in water. Features copper-plated brass ferrules and SilkTouch handles.
