Overview
Large Calligraphy Brush Mixed Hair White Hair with Light Brown Tip 7 cm Ferrule 2.2 cm Palm Handle 18 cm For Large Characters

The large calligraphy brush with mixed hair is designed for writing large Chinese characters with ink as well as for painting. The hair is white and transitions to a light brown tip, with a length of 7 cm. The ferrule measures 2.2 cm in diameter, allowing the brush to hold enough ink for broad and full strokes. It is suitable for writing spring couplets on red paper, festive inscriptions, and for regular calligraphy practice. The straight light handle made of Rhapis humilis palm transitions to a black conical ferrule at the hair. At the end of the handle is a black end cap with a loop, allowing you to hang the brush after use.

The mixed hair combines white hair with light brown tips, giving the brush a two-tone appearance at first glance. This allows it to manage not only broad strokes but also tapering at the end of the stroke and finer details of the character. The handle, including the ferrule, has a length of 18 cm, and the light wood with darker grain is visually typical of traditional Chinese brushes. The straight shape of the handle without widening allows you to hold the brush higher or lower depending on the size of the character you are writing. The brush is suitable for beginners who wish to learn to write larger characters, as well as for experienced calligraphers who need a standalone large brush for their set.

The large brush made of mixed hair is suitable wherever standard brushes for small writing are insufficient. On larger paper, you can write individual characters across the entire width of the sheet, for example, the character for happiness, which is traditionally displayed during festivals. You can write with both black and gold ink, making the brush useful for preparing New Year decorations. Thanks to the length of the hair, you can work with the entire surface of the hair or just its tip, thus changing the width of the stroke as needed.

Before the first use, gently soak the hair in clean water to release and open it up. After writing, rinse the brush in lukewarm water until the ink stops flowing out, and reshape the hair back into a point with your fingers. Dry it hanging by the loop with the hair down to prevent water from running into the handle. Do not store the wet brush in a closed case and do not leave it standing in water propped against the hair for long, as this can deform the hair.

This mixed hair brush is a practical choice for anyone writing large characters and inscriptions with ink. The hair length of 7 cm with a diameter of 2.2 cm at the ferrule allows for full and expressive strokes. The white hair with a light brown tip distinguishes the brush from others in your set. The loop at the end of the handle makes it easy to store on a stand or hook. The brush will serve well in preparing festive decorations, New Year greetings, and for regular practice of Chinese calligraphy.
