These brushes are made with a very
soft goat hair. They hold a lot of water! They are
indispensable to the traditional Japanese printmaker for moistening
the printing paper, although we have to admit that when you
see the price, you will be tempted to use a cheap paintbrush
for that job ... Go ahead! (But one day you will be back to
this page when you really want to do the job properly - with
the printing paper evenly and smoothly moistened ...)
The brushes are made with a one-piece
handle, split to receive the glued and sewn hair bundle.
