The Escoda Natural Chungking Bristle Brush is the ideal choice for the painter who is hard on his brushes. The Natural Chungking Bristle is stiffer and darker in color than the select grade used in EscodaÆs Premium Chungking brush, and it features long bristles that produce a soft edged stroke. Each brush includes a natural wooden handle with a matte finish, and a triple-crimped, polished brass ferrule. Finally, Escoda ôcuresö each brush with a secret, exclusive process - building memory into the brush and enhancing the natural characteristics of the fine hairs.
