Raphael 358 d’Artigny Hog Round
d’Artigny brushes are used and recognised internationally as their natural “fine white” hog bristles are strictly selected for their origin and undergo rigorous preparation. These natural multiple-flag fibres help the paint penetrate more successfully into the mesh of linen or canvas. They are rigid with a lot of spring (more than the Paris Classic) therefore ideal for thick paint and impasto work. They keep their natural shape very well and are extremely durable. Excellent paint-holding capacity, with a very lively and precise touch.
Brush Head: Round
Fibre: Hog Bristles
Use: For details or contours
Handle: Long nickel brass curved ferrule, long natural varnished handle.
