Shape Color with Ease using Da Vinci Petit Gris Pur Series 418 Blue Squirrel Quill
The Da Vinci Petit Gris Pur Series 418 Blue Squirrel Quill in size 2/0 is crafted from premium Russian blue squirrel hair, valued for its softness and exceptional water-holding capacity. This makes it an outstanding choice for mop and wash techniques where smooth, even coverage is essential.
Each brush is generously sized and hand-shaped to create a natural point that glides across paper with ease. The large reservoir releases water consistently, allowing artists to create broad washes, fluid strokes, and soft gradients without interruption.
Produced through certified green manufacturing, every brush features a sustainable wood handle expertly wrapped with traditional copper wire. Handmade in Germany at a family-owned factory established in 1890, this quill embodies craftsmanship and reliability.
