Da Vinci Russian Black Sable Brushes are of the highest quality and the perfect choice for professional artists looking for premium brushes for oil painting.
- Their stiffness allows for bristle-like strokes, with smoother results without marking the paint layers.
- The larger sized black sable brushes have great colour carrying capacity and are excellent for delicate blending and smoothing out ridges.
- The smaller sizes are especially suited to fine detail work.
- They feature long maroon coloured polished handles and a seamless nickel-plated brass ferrule giving them maximum durability ideally suited for portraiture and realist painting.
