A quality set of three traditional Chinese calligraphy brushes presented in their original silk-covered storage case.
Each brush features a polished bamboo-style handle with engraved Chinese characters, hanging cords and dark horn-effect ferrules fitted with natural animal hair brush heads. The brushes graduate in size, making them suitable for a range of brushwork from fine script to expressive ink painting.
The fitted presentation case is lined in vibrant green silk and retains its original patterned fabric exterior with bone-style toggle fasteners. A practical and decorative set, ideal for collectors of Asian art, calligraphers or as an elegant display piece.
These brushes form part of the traditional "Four Treasures of the Study" used in Chinese calligraphy alongside ink, paper and an inkstone.
