Our  synthetic brushes are made specifically for long-lasting use. Our brushes are a specially formulated mixture of Nylon and Polyester tapered filament in different lengths and diameter ratios. This mixture was developed to provide the right amount of stiffness while also providing enough flex with bend recovery. The amount of tapered filament used in the mixture allows for a smooth release of the paint application onto a surface evenly. Our synthetic brushes are able to keep their shape without becoming deformed when used in Dixie Belle water-based paints as their stiffness changes very little.  We developed these brushes to be dense having a lot more filament in them than you typically would with these size brushes

One of the more important parts of our brushes is the finishing process done to the ends of the filament. There is the right amount of tipping which grinds each filament tip to a finer point and flagging which splits the end of the filament tip like  hair. Both the tipping and flagged is performed to specific depths on each filament strand. The flagging allows for more paint pickup, to cover more space and laying paint down smoothly on a surface. 

  • All brushes are sold individually, not as a set.

All the brushes do have a flat style trim except for the mini. The mini brush has a chisel trim style but the chisel shape is first hand formed during the manufacturing process. The hand forming process provides an even soft feel throughout the chisel shape.

These brushes are medium/stiff and, since they are made with SRT (Solid Round Tapered) Filament, they have great response with spring back and bend recovery for the flex. This helps with retaining the natural form and shape of the brush. Exactly what you'd expect from high end professional paint brushes.
