Master the Flow with Da Vinci Petit Gris Pur Series 418 Blue Squirrel Quill
The Da Vinci Petit Gris Pur Series 418 Blue Squirrel Quill in size 3/0 is crafted from premium Russian blue squirrel hair, known for its exceptional softness and unmatched water-holding capacity. This makes it an outstanding choice for mop and wash techniques where smooth, consistent flow is essential.
Each brush is generously sized and hand-shaped to create a fine, controlled point capable of both broad strokes and delicate detail. The large natural reservoir releases water evenly, giving artists the ability to lay down expansive washes with minimal effort.
Every brush is handmade in Germany using certified green manufacturing practices. The sustainable wood handle is wrapped securely with copper wire in the traditional quill style, reflecting the craftsmanship Da Vinci has upheld since 1890.
