Needle Point Squirrel Mix Brush - Short Handle

Neef 4400 Needle Point Squirrel Mix Brush is much like the rigger in that it carries a fine line, with the exception of having a wider base which gives the brush more holding capacity.

A new development has been the combination of squirrel and taklon. TAKLON For point and spring, SQUIRREL for colour carrying capacity. This mix gives a superb brush for watercolour in particular at a much lower price than sable. Traditionally watercolourists have used brushes made from squirrel, however the hair is expensive. 20% of the SQUIRREL / TAKLON brush hair is made from blue Squirrel. This hair is a lot lighter than the taklon so the actual hair volume for the squirrel component seems much greater. 

Some brushes filtering through our range may still be completely Squirrel Hair, this brush is currently in a transitioning period from full to part Squirrel Hair.
