Black Horsehair Sumi-e Paint Brush with Ceramic Ferrule

This unique and beautiful brush was made with bamboo root and black horsehair. The bamboo handle has a stoneware ferrule. The horsehair is stiff, has great flex, strong spring and will make a wide variety of marks. The horsehair has been cut into a traditional Asian brush shape. The brush bristle will hold a lot of media and can make very bold and dynamic marks.

The brush has:

• A leather hanging strap
• The ferrule is Ceramic

Bristlehead:

• The black horsehair is 2" in length
• The Handle is 8.5" in length

My brushes are made to create a vast array of marks. When I make a brush I think about all aspects of the tool: how it looks, how it feels in the hand and how it paints - to ensure that the end product is a true "fine art tool".
