This Hake brush features a blend of natural and synthetic hair, carefully selected and hand stitched into a one-piece hand split bamboo handle. The short handle provides a steady grip and increases control, and it can be permanently divided into smaller brushes by breaking apart the sections. These brushes are made thick to provide a firm touch and greater water holding capacity. Ideal for applying media over large areas; for wash, sizing, gluing; and well suited for ceramic art. Brush hair length is approximately 1 3/4? long. Full length with handle measures approximately 5 5/8”.
