Experience Effortless Washes 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 is made from premium Russian blue squirrel hair, known for its unmatched softness and water-holding capacity. This natural absorbency makes the brush ideal for wash and mop techniques that rely on smooth, controlled flow.
Each brush is generously sized and hand-shaped to form a responsive point that allows for both sweeping strokes and fine detail. The large reservoir releases water consistently, making it easy to create fluid washes, soft gradients, and expressive transitions across the paper.
Crafted through certified green manufacturing, the sustainable wood handle is wrapped with copper wire in the classic quill style. Handmade in Germany by a family-owned workshop established in 1890, this brush reflects a heritage of precision and craftsmanship.
