Our Samurai series are made from a combination of handpicked selections of goat hair / weasel hair / ox hair / bristle. The mixed hair body allows for the creation of flexible lines. The transition from the opening of a stroke to the closing finish can be done smoothly. Both thick and thin lines can be performed freely, and the brush absorb the paint well. These brushes offer a marvelous balance between a soft exterior section, with a firm inner core. These are suited for expert-level calligraphy, sumi-e, and painting artists. The brushes will last many years, with good maintenance and storage techniques. Momo Arts offers only craftsman-made Chinese calligraphy and Sumi-e products for art and life. Our business is committed to preserving this four thousand year old tradition. With decades of experience handcrafting brushes, our craftsmen select, straighten, comb, roll, and assemble individual strands of animal hair to achieve the highest performance standards necessary to produce precise and expressive calligraphy. Our Taiwanese brush makers are among the best artisans in the world. There are only a few master craftsmen in Taiwan who continue to practice the art of brush making- more as a passion than a business. The fine quality of these brushes will be obvious to you from your first use. Our brushes will last many years with proper maintenance and storage techniques. We are confident that you will find these brushes to be among the finest brushes available today.
