A brush with cat's tongue tip, extra fine ox hair, long handle in earth-red lacquered wood with gold tip and nickel-plated brass ferrule.
The extra fine ox hair is characterised by an extreme softness, a good water release and colour absorbency. Due to the low elasticity and thin hairs, it is ideal for oil paint, acrylic, gouache and watercolour. The brushstroke is soft and light, whilst the line is delicate and used in light strokes such as for solid backgrounds.
Series 72 is characterised by a light fibre and a slightly-cut tip, ideal for retouching, shading and glazing. The broad range of sizes is able to meet the needs of oil painters and decorators alike. The handle is long, light and suitable for vertical work, where distance is needed between the hand and the work for perspective and a greater overview. The cat's tongue tip allows you to create light strokes and rounded details, whilst maintaining the form, when well maintained.
THE LINE
When used at the tip, the line is rounded and medium-long. When pressure is applied, it leaves a petal shape.
