Series 418 is an irresistible wash brush. Silky soft pure Russian
squirrel hair bound in a goose quill and set on a light coloured
handle.
This holds plenty of watercolour for applying large areas of
wash and the point helps you to control the edges. If ever the
possession of a wonderful brush could make you paint a better
painting this is the one. |

This is one of my favourite brushes and if I could take only
one brush on a watercolouring trip this is the one. Dry, it
is the softest and most sensual of brushes, wet it and it holds
plenty of water but keeps a painting tip. It is excellent for
large washes but good for the tricky corners too. It has a short
black handle, a nickelled brass ferrule and it is a pointed
flat sort of shape. Go for extra large if you can afford it. |

We stock two main types of hake. The Ron Ranson hake made to
that artist’s specification by ProArte has a metal ferrule
and is a very fine brush in sizes from small to extra large.
Our cheaper imported hakes have sewn wooden handles in the traditional
way.

thinking that it is really over the top. However, I challenge
you to come and have a good look at our wash brushes and not
get just a bit excited. |
