Made with carefully selected materials from Hiroshima brush makers, this high-quality mixed-hair brush has excellent elasticity and resilience, and holds ink very well. It provides a smooth, flexible, and sharp writing experience, allowing you to create strong, dynamic lines. The use of firm bristles also allows for very stable and powerful lines, making it easy to write both large and small characters using the tip of the brush. Once you use this brush, you'll undoubtedly appreciate its ease of use! In short, this brush offers a truly wonderful writing experience, and you won't regret purchasing it!
