Da Vinci : Black Sable Brushes : Series 1640 / 1840 / 1845

<a id="brushseries"></a> <p>Da Vinci Black Sable are high quality versatile brushes that use Russian black sable, also known as Russian fitch hair.</p><p>The hair lies between artist Chungking bristle and the finest Kolinsky red sable but still gives the painter the benefits of red sable. Its stiffness allows for bristle-like strokes, only smoother without marking the paint layers. In larger sizes, black sable brushes have excellent color carrying capacity.</p><p>Excellent for delicate blending and smoothing out ridges, this range is a favorite among portrait and realist painters. Seamless, nickel-plated brass ferrules provide durability and black sable is great value when compared to Kolinsky red sable hair, especially in the large sizes.</p>
