Synthetic Kolinsky Detail Brush

Description

Kolibri detail brush with best tip, stiff brown flexible synthetic hair fixed in stainless steel ferrule and short blue varnished handle.

Kolibri brushes are handmade in Germany by Feurer & Sohn—one of the oldest brush manufacturers in Germany (established 1898).

Silver-Plated Brass Ferrules

The ferrule of each Kolibri Red Sable Detail brush receives two deep crimps. Deep crimping compresses the walls of the ferrule into the wooden handle, creating a mechanical lock that securely fastens the ferrule to the handle.

Hardwood Handles

The short red polished handles are made of hardwood and are lacquer finished for long life. Only the best brush handles are dipped. They are made by lowering the handles first in primer, then twice in colored lacquer and finally in varnish—a total of four coats—for a lustrous durable finish. For ease of handling in a pencil grip, the hardwood handles are 14 cm (5.5 in.) from the ferrule to handle end.

The handle’s triangular shape provides a comfortable grip that is secure while working to allow you to make the finest details. The triangular shape also prevents the brush from rolling off tables and work surfaces.
