The Raphael Series 877 art paint brushes are made of Kevrin (fine Mongoose) which combines the strength of a bristle with the elasticity and control of sable at a reasonable price. These natural hairs resist staining, making them easier to clean and maintain. Ideal for oil, acrylic or even watercolor use. Each paintbrush is constructed with black wooden handles with nickel ferrules. Raphael makes some of the finest artist paint brushes so don’t miss out by not adding at least one to your art materials.
