Russian black sable hair have a fine tip and high elasticity. Their stiffness allows brush strokes in between Chungking bristle and the finest Kolinsky red sable hair without smudging the layers of paint.
Excellent for fine blending and to even cut edges, making it ideal for portrait painters and photorealists.
