Overview
Large Calligraphy Brush Weasel Hair Wooden Handle 15 cm Hair 7.2 cm Diameter 2.1 cm Brown Hair For Large Characters and Chinese Calligraphy

The large calligraphy brush with weasel hair is designed for writing large Chinese characters with ink. The hair has a warm brown colour and holds the tip shape firmly. The hair length is 7.2 cm and at the ferrule, the diameter is 2.1 cm, allowing the brush to hold a lot of ink and create broad and rich strokes. It is suitable for writing New Year couplets, inscriptions on red paper, and for independent calligraphy practice. The wooden handle widens towards the hair and fits comfortably in the hand.

Weasel hair is one of the traditional materials for Chinese brushes, and in this piece, the seller describes it as soft. The brown hair tapers smoothly to a point, allowing for both full and wide strokes as well as fine tapering at their ends. The wooden handle has a length of 15 cm, a warm brown shade with visible wood grain, and a round end with a cord loop.

You will appreciate the large weasel hair brush wherever standard brushes for small writing are insufficient. With it, you can write individual characters across the full width of a larger sheet of paper, such as the character for luck, which is traditionally displayed during holidays. While working, you can utilise the entire surface of the hair or just its tip, thus varying the stroke width as needed.

Before the first use, gently moisten the hair in clean water to loosen and spread it. After writing, rinse the brush in lukewarm water until the ink stops flowing from it, and use your fingers to reshape the hair back to a point. Dry it hanging down by the loop to prevent water from running towards the ferrule. Do not store a wet brush in a closed case and do not leave it standing in water for long periods with the hair down to avoid creasing.

A calligraphy brush with weasel hair is a practical choice for anyone writing large characters and inscriptions with ink. The hair length of 7.2 cm and diameter of 2.1 cm at the ferrule allow for full and expressive strokes. It serves well for preparing festive decorations, New Year wishes, and regular practice. The loop at the end of the handle makes it easy to store on a hook or stand. Brown hair combined with a wooden handle complements any set for Chinese calligraphy.
