Handcrafted Parrot Feather Sumi-e Paintbrush

This listing is for a handcrafted parrot feather Sumi-e paintbrush which was made with soft, flexible parrot feathers that are 4.75" in length. These types of feathers can make very fluids and delicate marks, they are wonderful to work with. The feathers also have very good spring and shape recall. Feather brushes make beautiful, controlled but still random marks. One of my favorite types of brushes 😍

The bamboo handle is 10.5" long, has a leather hanging strap, and has a burned-in pattern.
