Overview
Chinese Calligraphy Brush Jianhao Medium Mixed Hair 3.3 cm Bamboo Handle 23 cm For Characters 3 to 6 cm For Calligraphy and Ink Painting

The Chinese calligraphy brush Marie's with mixed hair Jianhao in a medium size is designed for traditional Chinese calligraphy as well as ink painting. The hair is 3.3 cm long and measures 1.0 cm at its widest point, making the brush suitable for characters approximately 3 to 6 cm in size. The handle is made from natural bamboo and measures 23 cm, which makes the brush lightweight and easy to hold. At the end of the handle, there is a cord for hanging the brush after washing, allowing it to dry with the tip down. This brush is appreciated by both beginners and more experienced calligraphers who wish to expand their set with a specific size.

The Jianhao hair combines several types of fur, offering a balanced ratio between flexibility and softness. The manufacturer states it as a popular choice for hobby calligraphers who want one universal brush for both writing and painting. The tip straightens into a clean point when wet, flexes, and returns to its original shape, ensuring that strokes have a definite beginning and end. The medium size is intended for characters sized 3 to 6 cm. It is a universal dimension for practising regular and official scripts, as well as for Chinese landscape painting, line painting, and watercolour, where thin lines and fuller strokes alternate.

The hair of the new brush is factory-shaped into a tip. Before the first use, gently squeeze it with your fingers and carefully remove any loose shaping, then soak the brush in water for 5 to 10 minutes. After soaking, gently squeeze the hair several times and turn the brush to align the tip into a point. Dip into ink approximately two-thirds of the length of the hair, ensuring the root of the hair remains dry. After use, rinse the brush in lukewarm water, align the hair into a point, and allow it to dry freely.

The Chinese calligraphy brush with mixed hair Jianhao in a medium size is a practical tool for anyone engaged in calligraphy or ink painting. The handle length of 23 cm ensures comfortable holding and sufficient distance from the paper. The brush can handle writing characters as well as painting landscapes, flowers, and birds. It is suitable for independent practice at home, for art courses, and as an addition to an already used set of brushes. Each size in this range has its own recommended character range, making it easy to add exactly the brush you need.
