Overview
Chinese Calligraphy Brush Made of Wool Hair Medium Tip 3.3 cm Bamboo Handle 23 cm For Characters 3 to 6 cm For Calligraphy and Ink Painting

The Marie's Chinese calligraphy brush with wool hair in a medium size is designed for traditional Chinese calligraphy and 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, making the brush lightweight and comfortable 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 facing down. The brush is appreciated by beginners and more experienced calligraphers looking to expand their set with a specific size.

The wool hair is soft and, according to the manufacturer, holds more ink than other types of hair in this range. Therefore, you do not need to dip the brush as often, and the strokes remain rich and even. The soft tip aligns into a clean point after wetting and responds well to changes in pressure, which is particularly appreciated by those who want to transition from thin lines to wider strokes in one go. The medium size is intended for characters sized 3 to 6 cm. This is a universal size for practicing 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 first use, gently squeeze it with your fingers and carefully remove any loosened 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 the brush into the ink approximately two-thirds of the hair length, ensuring the root 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 wool hair 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 manage writing characters as well as painting landscapes, flowers, and birds. It is suitable for independent practice at home, art courses, and as an addition to an already used set of brushes. Each size in this range has its own recommended character range, allowing you to easily supplement with exactly the brush you need.
