Love these brushes for water retention, comfort grip and easy to use. Beautiful fine points for very fine line work in all the sizes. Definitely dry upside down to keep in great shape. Lovely set.

Excelente calidad, retienen una muy buena cantidad de agua, hacen una punta muy fina, valen lo que cuestan!

Update: I've had these just at two months and the handles are showing a crack on two of the brushes. I don't paint too often so I've used these maybe four to five times, and not for long sessions either. I also do not keep my brushes in water, even when painting, if I'm not using it I rinse and put aside until needed again. So I was really surprised to find that the paint is cracking on the handle. I'm outside the return window so am stuck with them.I needed some new brushes, having lost four of my favorites during a move. After looking at these on the site and reading all the "positive" reviews I went ahead and clicked buy. I got them today and was all excited to start painting with these new brushes, good professional brushes.These arrived in a very nice black box on a bed of foam, to which they were also strapped down. Each brush was individually wrapped and had a plastic sleeve over the brush head. The company did all they could to protect these during shipping. These would also be appropriate to give as a gift, either wrapped or just a ribbon around the box.This is whereI had to change my review, which at first was not a positive one. I didn't like the handles, they felt too light to be balanced. I also didn't like the way they did the ferrules. I now understand why they were made that way, to prevent rust and ruining the brush. But since actually trying the brushes, I have come to enjoy them. They're real squirrel hair and, I believe, synthetic horse hair. They hold water and paint well with pretty good control. They also rinse and clean easily. They maintain the point very well, going back to looking new after cleaning and drying. I have noticed a few hairs here and there, but I don't think it's anything to worry over. I haven't seen any stray hairs branching out on their own away from the brush head. I'll be keeping them in the plastic sleeves they came in.I plan to order other sets of these to get different sizes, but this is good set to start with. I think the price is fair, given four brushes of real hair, not sable, but still good and still real.

These brushes retain water and colour - they absorb beautifully and this allows for beautiful strokes when painting with watercolours. Worth the money.

These brushes soak up water and help to deliver a smooth wash! I habb by e had no problems with hair falling out or chip painting. They drive like an expensive limo and feel great in the hand. They also seem to hold their point making enabling a quick detail fix. (Does not replace a small round or other brushes made specifically for detail) but does make a quick small fix or highlight possible without the time and energy of breaking out another brush.Highly recommend. Does the job without breaking the bank!
