It's an easy-to-use and practical brush, perfect for Tanabata (Star Festival) and New Year's calligraphy competitions. Made with carefully selected materials from Hiroshima brush makers, this high-quality mixed-hair brush has excellent elasticity and firmness, and holds ink very well. It provides a smooth, flexible, and sharp writing experience, allowing for bold and energetic lines. Furthermore, the use of stiff "life hair" (the core of the brush) allows for very stable and powerful lines, making it easy to write both large and small characters using the tip. 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! This brush is new but already in a "saba-ki-fude" (untreated) state, meaning the bristles are not stiffened with glue. Also, the tip is already darkened due to the type of stiff hair used. The photo shows the brush after the bristles have been wetted with water and shaped. Approximate brush dimensions are as follows: Diameter of the tip: 17 mm Length of the tip: 71 mm Length of the handle: 182 mm Please note that some hairs may come out when using a new brush for the first time, but this is normal. The images posted represent the actual brush being sold. ★This item is offered at a low price including shipping, so further discounts are not possible.
