Black Velvet Round Brushes

Black Velvet™ Squirrel-Risslon brushes are the ideal working tools for the watercolourist, silk painter, and artists working with inks, dyes, acrylics and gouache.  Squirrel hair holds large amounts of colour, releasing it with perfect control.  Because squirrel is delicate it’s been blended with a synthetic to resist wear and maintain a wonderful snap and spring.

Hair:  Black Squirrel and synthetic filament – Risslon
Ferrule:  Polished black
Handle:  Gloss black with a distinctive silver neck band

Soft and luxurious,  this soft blend allows multiple layer glazing without disturbing previous colour, and firm enough to lift and manipulate colour.

The joy of working with this long-lasting brush is unparalleled and well worth the initial investment.
