Sable Watercolor Brushes Professional, Fuumuui 7Pcs Kolinsky Sable Brush Set Variety Shapes with Flat, Round Pointed, Cat's Tongue Oval Wash Fan Brush Perfect for Watercolor Gouache Inks Painting

I purchased these brushes on a whim; they came up in my search for synthetic Kolinsky watercolor brushes. For the price I was a bit skeptical, but since I could return them if they didn’t meet my standards, I took a chance. I also purchased another set, same brand, that were just regular short-handled watercolor brushes.At first, when I started using them, I worried a bit because they were shedding. Thankfully the shedding stopped.These brushes arrived on July 12 and I’ve used them every day since! They hold a tremendous amount of water/pigment, have great snap, and are capable of creating fine lines. I love both sets, but tend to use the travel brushes more because I like the weight and feel of them!Hot tip: do NOT attempt to cap the travel brushes when dry, it won’t work because they are fluffy. For full transparency, it took me a sec to figure out how to re-cap them…I discovered there is a small hole in the cap tip. To re-cap them, simply dip them in clean water, roll them on a paper towel (or use your fingers) to a point and place them in the tube! Voila!! Your travel brushes are good to go and there is no damage to the bristles.Recently I took a trip to the beach and took the 4-piece travel set with me. I was able to paint any and everything I wanted with just 4 brushes! I’d love to add a small liner brush for super tiny details; maybe they have one I didn’t see?In short, I have been so thoroughly impressed with these brushes! I’m always searching for “the” best brushes for watercolor, and I have quite the collection now! I find myself reaching for these 9 out of 10 times. For the price, I’d say these brushes are a steal! I have another synthetic Kolinsky brush that cost the same price I paid for the travel set and, in my opinion, the Fuumuuis put it to shame.Take a chance, buy the brushes, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

These are seconds. But they are still pretty good for all except the most fine detail work.

This is a really nice set of brushes, professional quality, great feel in the hand, and at a very reasonable price!

The brushes are what I needed new to watercolor

So far so good

These brushes shed a little at first. Not too soft which allows for control when lifting.

Nice quality brushes/wrong brush sizes.Fan-6 pc Set is advertised to include round sizes #5 & #3, but actually includes round #8 & #14 instead. On 2nd round of returning since I already have 8 and 14 sizes.

Good product
