Escoda: Mastery in Brushmaking Since 1933
Escoda is a symbol of craftsmanship and innovation in the world of brushmaking. Founded in 1933 in Barcelona, Spain, this family-owned company has earned a prestigious reputation for producing some of the finest artists’ brushes available.
The story of Escoda began with Josep Escoda Roig, a skilled artisan who dedicated his life to perfecting the art of brushmaking. His commitment to excellence laid the foundation for a company that continues to blend tradition with new technology. Escoda brushes are renowned for their precision, durability and control, making them a popular choice for artists.
Each Escoda brush is meticulously handcrafted, ensuring that every detail meets the highest standards. The company uses only the finest materials such as Kolinsky sable, Tajmyr squirrel, and synthetic fibres to create brushes that offer excellent performance across various mediums including watercolour, oil, acrylic, and more.
One of Escoda’s most notable innovations is their triple-crimped ferrule, a design that ensures the bristles remain securely in place, even after years of use. This attention to detail is a hallmark of Escoda’s commitment to creating brushes that exceed the expectations of artists.
Escoda’s passion for innovation is also evident in their synthetic brush ranges, such as the Versàtil and Perla, which provide artists with vegan alternatives that do not compromise on performance. These brushes are designed to mimic the qualities of natural hair while offering enhanced durability and resilience, making them ideal for artists who seek high quality brushes without the use of animal hair.
Beyond their renowned brushes, Escoda is committed to sustainability and ethical practices, using responsibly sourced materials and environmentally friendly processes in their production. This dedication to both quality and sustainability ensures that Escoda remains a leader in the industry, setting the standard for brushmaking excellence.
‘I can still happily use this brush for not only larger sweeps of colour, but smaller and more intricate details. My main concern was that it would struggle to maintain a tight point, however, I am glad to find that this is not the case.
I use it regularly to add calligraphic marks into my paintings, working both wet-on-wet and wet-on-dry, and have no complaints about its performance after six months of almost daily use.’
