This impressive lot includes exactly 26 brushes in various sizes and thicknesses, making it the absolute perfect set for both "Shodo" (traditional calligraphy) and "Sumi-e" (ink wash painting) artists. Special Note: This diverse collection features not only traditional Japanese brushes (Wafude) but also highly sought-after vintage Chinese brushes (such as those from the famous "Shanghai" / 上海 artisans). In the professional calligraphy world, these Chinese brushes are highly praised for their unique hair quality and exceptional resilience. These 26 brushes are crafted using traditional methods, featuring natural animal hair carefully bound to elegant bamboo and wooden shafts. Many of the shafts feature beautiful artisan engravings and maker's marks. Condition: Good vintage condition. Some brushes are unused, while others have been previously used and show traces of dried ink. In the world of Asian art, this residual ink is appreciated as a beautiful patina that tells the story of the brush's past artistic life. Please check the photos carefully.
