Sable Travel Watercolour Brushes 4pcs, Fuumuui Elegant Kolinsky Sable Travel Brushes Kit with Leather Pouch Perfect for Watercolor Gouache Ink Painting

Holds the paint very well and are excellent for travel

Given the price, I was skeptical, but the gamble paid off. I got this set on sale for less than £16 - but even the usual price is exceptional value for money. I half expected them to be synthetic, with a dodgy fit and finish, and horribly balanced. I was shocked - because they appear and feel to be genuine sable. If they are in fact synthetic, the manufacturer must have some market-leading technology - because they behave exactly like kolinsky sable. They're brilliant to paint with - they hold a lot of water, are butter soft and still retain a point. They also look great, the wooden handle has a lovely grain and is nicely varnished. To list a negative, it would be that fit and finish isn't 100% - though it's pretty close. There are some minor flaws in the metal and one of the brushes has a ferrule that's not perfectly in line with the handle. But these still get five stars because they don't impact on the use, they still look great - and given the price, I'm amazed they're as good as they are. I can't believe these are being sold for around £20. The only explanation is that the animal which kolinsky sable comes from is native to parts of China - so it's readily available and thus quite cheap to get hold of. I have a no.4 Da Vinci kolinsky sable travel brush that cost as much as this entire set. To replace this set with Da Vinci sable would cost about £160. Could I say those brushes are £140 better? Honestly? No. I also can't believe some reviewers are complaining about the carry case. It doesn't look cheap at all. I suspect it's 'genuine leather' - in that it's lesser grade leather. But it's well put together and it looks really smart. The three brushes for this price are barely believable - the case is just a bonus.

Useful to keep in my bag, ok brushes. Not brilliant for botanical art, but I just wanted a set of brushes to carry around for general painting

Well pleased with this set of brushes, not high end Sable,but a very respectable Synthetic,holds water and paint well,and can produce a variety of different line widths, nicely packaged as well,very pleased,and they are conveniently,and easily put together,then packed away, Delightful set, for the price paid.😁👌

For the price, I am impressed how good these are. Decent point, picks up good amount of paint and holding together very well considering I have used them every day for the past month. Need to save them for travel really. I like the way the brush head can be safely stored inside the barrel. Only slight down side for me is that I find the assembled brush bit top heavy due the metal barrel. Prefer the balance of an all wooden brush but just a matter of getting used to it.

All exccellent brushes - just what I wanted

Flimsy. Not strong

I was a bit dubious that these brushes would be low quality given their competitive price, but I have been very impressed at how well they perform ! They have a nice point and hold the amount of paint or water I would hope for. The handles have a screw fastening which works to both the retain & protect the brush ends when you put them away and when you use the metal end to form the handle. So it feels very secure as you are painting. The 3 sizes are sufficiently different to give you a good range from small and precise, mid-sized with a fine tip to a wider stroke. So far they are as good as my more expensive Escoda travel brushes, so hopefully they will have been a good buy ! Great value and handy to just pop in a bag for travelling.

Da die Kappe verschraubt wird, sitzt sie fest und dir Pinsel lassen sich gut halten. Das die Pinsel Haare verlieren, konnte ich bis jetzt noch feststellen.

Son unos pinceles finos, pero les falta el acabado finos. Aunque se pinta bien y no suelta pelo, el abanico que forma el pincel no es uniforme.

Very happy with the quality of the brushes and their metallic casing. The 4 diff brushes give a wholesome range to paint, on the move. Wish the leather bag had a sling or velcro to attache to the paint colours box, to make a single unit.

ils se déboite trop facilement lorsque l'on peint...mais c'est c'est un très bon produit

Son geniales. Soy principiante, y utilicé las primeras semanas unos pinceles con deposito que venian con las acuarelas en pastilla que utilizo. Como eran malísimos pensé en buscar otro, vi que el precio era demasiado para lo que podia gastar en este momento y estos han resultado costar 3 unidades lo que costaría un solo pincel de la “marca buena” y son GENIALES. Suaves, recogen mucha agua, no cae pelo. Compacto y de alta calidad, con estuche por que son portatiles, volví a comprar otros para mi pareja y una amiga que pintaban y se sorprendieron al utilizarlos.
