The Ultimo 1530 range from Escoda features an incredibly absorbent rounded tip ideal for washes, large-scale colouring or abstract effects. Ideal for watercolour, their highly absorbent Tendo Synthetic filaments offer an alternative to natural squirrel hair, able to absorb & hold large portions of water for mop painting techniques & bold washes, especially over larger areas. Their soft texture & sharp point allows for a variety of strokes from fine lines to broad swathes whilst retaining their original shape. Their short, lightweight wooden handles are easy-to-use, ergonomically designed for comfort & topped with attractive rustproof ferrules.
