EscodaPerla Series 1435 Short Handle Round Artist Watercolor Brush, 6, White Toray Filament

Brush worked well and always has a sharp point.

Wow, pretty sure this is going to be one of my favorite brushes - and that is saying a lot. I've got lots of really great brushes. Hard to explain but just the way it moves, the point - I love everything about this brush. I have the size 2 and am considering getting other sizes.

This is the first brush I grab when I need this for my watercolors. I have not tried every brand out there, but I have quite a few and this is a superior one.

Brush holds a lot of water and maintains shape. I have grown very disappointed in this brush. After a small amount of use the tip has developed a “hook.” This hook often develops in cheap synthetic brushes but I was hoping that this brush would be better. I have no contacted Amazon or Escoda but intend on do so. I also purchased a no. 14 but have no used it. I would no recommend this brush if this is a inherent problem.

This small dagger watercolor brush is perfect for any small detail application. It costs a little more, but you forget the cost when you use it. You just love using it!

This brush holds a ton of water and come to a very fine point. Love using it as my main watercolor brush.

Es muy fino y permite trabajar detalles con facilidad

The stipulation: Buying brushes outside of a box set on Amazon is a gamble. Prior to purchase I'd read many reviews of paint brushes (from a variety of companies) that had arrived bent and damaged upon delivery, so I was not shocked when my brush arrived in similar fashion. The brush was packaged in a medium yellow bubble-lined envelope with no protection around it to prevent it from shifting around. There was a small clear plastic tube at the top of the brush meant to protect the bristles, however the plastic bit was partially snapped and the head of the brush was smashed into a 45 degree angle. While I was able to manipulate the bristles nearly back into shape, they still sit slightly angled.Despite the damage, I still really enjoy using this brush. The tip of the brush was preserved, fortunately, so it's still been a useful addition to my collection. I love the control and precision it provides. It comes to a really nice point and holds it's shape, which has been perfect for detail work using watercolor and gouache. The brush also retains a nice amount of paint/moisture, so I don't need to re-dip into the paint quite as often.The bottom line: If you can live with your brush potentially being damaged upon arrival, then I would still recommend purchasing this brush from Amazon. If not, I'd say save your money and stick with a set that has brush caps or comes in its own protective container. While I appreciate that there's an effort being made to cut back on unnecessary packaging/waste for Amazon deliveries, I would implore brush companies like Escoda to better protect their loose brushes in their own boxes -- much like they would for their brush sets -- to preserve the quality of their products.

The hairs don't fall out immediately but the brush is smaller than I thought (which is on me) but photos didn't provide a scale. Packaging was questionable.

Great for doing fine detail and beautifully thin lines while being a vegan brush.

tres bien

Desafortunadamente llegó maltratado, y requirió una reparación, cuiden su embalaje.

Ein schöner Pinsel. Gute Qualität! Ich mag Escoda
