Description

THIS PRODUCT IS EXCLUSIVE TO CASS ART

Total Individual Brush Value: £103.15

This Winsor & Newton Series 7 Kolinsky Sable Brushes Wallet is positively regal. Series 7 brushes were created in 1866, when Queen Victoria herself ordered Winsor & Newton to create the very finest watercolour brushes in her favourite size: the No. 7.

  • Even today, they have a strong claim to being the world’s finest watercolour brush.
  • They’re handmade from only the finest pure Kolinsky sable hair, the very finest sable, famous for its strength and its unparalleled ability to hold water, making it perfect for watercolour washes.
  • Series 7 brushes have rust-proof, seamless nickel-plated ferrules with short black polished handles.

These top-of-the-range brushes really are something special, and we think you’ll see the difference in your work. This set contains an assortment of four Series 7 Kolinsky Sable Brushes as well as a brush wallet to store them safely with.

Q&A (6)
Q Hi, what size brushes come with this set? Is it the ones pictured? Kind regards, Lucy
A

The brushes in this set are sizes 00, 2, 3 and 4

Q hi, what size is the wallet please? Thank you.
A

This wallet is 25cm x 17.8cm.

Q What are the benefits to using a synthetic brush as oppose to a natural hair brush?
A

Using natural hair for the bristles of a brush as oppose to using synthetic materials is a more traditional practice. Natural hair brushes tend to carry and hold more colour than a synthetic brush. Sable hair brushes taper naturally, so when added to a brush creates a fine point. This is a quality that can advantage the application of watercolour paint and is not as easily obtained by synthetic brushes.

Q What are the benefits of using natural hair brushes as oppose to synthetic brushes?

Sable hair brushes taper naturally, so when added to a brush creates a fine point. This is a quality that can advantage the application of watercolour paint and is not as easily obtained by synthetic brushes.

Q My brush has misshapen over time. How can I rectify this?
A

If your brush has misshapen, you can do so by soaking in boiling water and allowing brush to reshape. Please keep in mind that if your brush is resting on its bristles, this will affect its shape so take care when soaking. Should you wish to retain the point of your brush, you can do so by dipping in gum Arabic and reshaping. Make sure you leave your brush to dry fully before using after applying gum Arabic, as the medium could potentially change the effect of the paint you are using.

Q What can I use to clean sable brushes?
A

Sable brushes are typically used for watercolour, and can be cleaned easily with warm water. A sable brush should not be cleaned with harsh substances such as turpentine as this may cause the brush to degrade. You may be able to use a colourless and unscented PH neutral soap to clean your sable brush should you wish, although this is not necessary for cleaning watercolour paint from your brush.

22nd September 2020 Reviewed by Martin Brown These are the best water colour brushes. I've been using series7 for over 25yrs. They keep their point for finer work and last a long time. The water/paint load tonal control is the best in its class. I also use them for oil, which shortens the life of the brush. The four pack makes excellent value

6th January 2018 Reviewed by Emlyn Thomas I am into miniature painting and found the series 7 brushes were a consistently recommended item in the painter's supply and I can certainly see why. The quality of each of the brushes is superior to those I have used previously as I found others to split or curl within days of use while this is still fine after a week of heavy use.
I will be ordering more of the series 7 in the future and I highly recommend them to other miniature model painters.

16th June 2017 Reviewed by Jenny Coleman These brushes are ideal for watercolour paints or used to blend pencil drawings with a good pencil blend. The difference between these brushes and any other collection is phenomenal.
The brush strokes are so much smoother, they hold a good quantity of paint, they do not fray and they naturally reform the pointed ends.

These brushes are an investment as they will outlast other brushes by years.

Ideal for anyone who takes their art work seriously.
