For expressive, structured color applications in the style of the old masters.
The 287 series combines traditional craftsmanship with natural expressiveness. The light-colored oxhair bristles provide a subtly textured, vibrant application of paint and are ideal for impasto techniques and expressive painting styles. The cat's tongue shape allows for both soft transitions and precise edges – perfect for detailed compositions and harmonious color gradients.
Made with nickel ferrules and long, cherry-red lacquered handles, this brush stands for quality, durability, and comfortable handling. A tool that enriches classic oil painting with character and precision.
Available in various sizes – choose the brush that suits you best. Other sizes available upon request.
Care instructions : After painting, clean carefully with moisturizing soap and warm water to maintain the softness of the natural hairs. Detailed cleaning tips can be found here .
