Overview
Jianhao Small Chinese Calligraphy Brush Mixed Hair 2.9 cm Bamboo Handle 23 cm For Characters 2 to 4 cm For Calligraphy and Ink Painting

The Marie's Jianhao mixed hair Chinese calligraphy brush in small size is designed for traditional Chinese calligraphy and ink painting. The hair is 2.9 cm long and measures 0.9 cm at its widest point, making the brush suitable for characters approximately 2 to 4 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 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 want to expand their set with a specific size.

The Jianhao hair combines multiple types of hair, offering a balanced ratio between flexibility and softness. The manufacturer describes it as a popular choice for hobby calligraphers who want one versatile brush for both writing and painting. The tip aligns into a clean point after wetting, flexes and returns to its original shape, ensuring that strokes have a definite beginning and end. The small size is intended for characters measuring 2 to 4 cm. It is suitable for small regular scripts, signatures, fine lines in Chinese line painting, and details in watercolour, where precise control of stroke thickness is required.

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 loose shaping, then soak the brush in water for 5 to 10 minutes. After soaking, gently squeeze the hair several times and rotate the brush to align the tip into a point. Dip into ink for about two-thirds of the hair length, 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.
