  • Y-100 Yuanyi Chinese Calligraphy brush (Sub-brand of Ruhong)

    • Dimensions: Set of 3, head size: S: 8.5 x 30mm | M: 9.5 x 35mm| L: 10,5x40mm
      Materials: Natural weasel & squirrel hair blend

    • Description: Yuanyi carries forward Ruhong’s century-old brushmaking tradition, bringing the craftsmanship of the traditional Chinese brush to today’s artists and calligraphers (120+ handmade processes)

    • Its carefully balanced weasel and squirrel hair blend makes it equally suitable for watercolor painting. The brush is absorbent yet elastic and firm—not overly soft or prone to holding too much water—giving artists greater control and expressive brushwork in partial area or detail painting.

    • Made according to the traditional Four Virtues of a fine Chinese brush—sharp tip, even hair, rounded body and resilient strength—Yuanyi combines traditional craftsmanship, responsive performance and excellent value.

    • Description: An artist-designed flat brush with excellent water absorption, balanced release and resilient control. It holds ample water without overloading the brush, helping reduce unwanted watermarks, blooms and uneven color.

    • When wet, the hair forms a crisp, blade-like edge for precise control, expressive strokes, dry-brush effects and distinctive textures.

    • Finished with a smoothly polished ebony handle for a comfortable grip.

    • Price: $45.00

    • Description: Handcrafted from dense, naturally smoked coal bamboo, traditionally darkened and seasoned over time to develop its distinctive purplish-red tone and strength. Gentle on watercolor paper, the beveled edge is shaped and refined for scraping, lifting, mark-making and expressive textures.
