Sable and white Synthetic brush White Nights, round, short handle No. 8

Brushes with natural black sable hair and snow-white synthetic fibers WHITE NIGHTS combine the best characteristics of the natural hair (water retention) and the synthetic fibers (elasticity and wear resistance). They are generally used for watercolor painting, but are also good for gouache, tempera, acrylic and oil paints. - Trendy brushes:  film-type ferrule without metal wire (improved version of the French fixation), easy maintenance. - Perfect balance of sable hair and synthetic fibers. The sable hair ensures excellent paint picking up and delivery, while the synthetic fibers help keep the tip sharp for writing (holds the shape). - Deeper position of the hair bundle helps retain more water as compared to brushes with standard ferrules. - With a sharp brush tip one can create very elaborate and thin forms. - Functional handle end can be used for dividing sheets in glued pads, scratch work and removing masking fluid. - Round brushes are flexible and can be used for detail painting, creating a wide range of forms and effects. Comparison with other natural hair brushes: - Sable hair is shorter and thinner than kolinsky hair. It is also elastic. - In terms of elasticity, sable hair brushes are somewhere between a soft squirrel hair brush and an elastic kolinsky hair brush.  - A well-balanced combination of natural manageable hair of the black sable and synthetic fibers makes the brush a bit more elastic than that with squirrel hair, increasing its predictability and improving control of water and paint balance in the brush. - Sable hair brushes have greater wear resistance than those with kolinsky hair.
