Escoda Toray Gold Synthetic Angular Short Handle - Escoda
Toray Gold is the finest quality synthetic fiber available for artists working
with watercolors. Slightly stiffer than the Toray white, it keeps an excellent
edge for a soft, yet controlled application. For increased longevity, Escoda cures
each brush increasing the spring and resilience of the hair. The short,
green lacquered wood handle is triple crimped to the nickel-plated brass ferrule.
The nylon filaments vary in diameter to allow for a more natural
appearance. |
