Jackson's : Icon : Sable Synthetic Mix Watercolor Brushes : Series 700 / 702 / 777 / 7776

A mix of tradition and modern technology, these Icon brushes represent the advancements of science combined with the classic needs of the traditional watercolor artist.

The uniqueness of the micro-synthetic fiber is twofold. Firstly, the fibers are specially treated to produce millions of tiny indentations. This increases the surface area of the hairs allowing a much greater color holding capacity for the brush. The hairs are then treated with a process that frees the micro-synthetic fibers of any static electricity which makes brush fibers stick together. Following this treatment the hairs can smoothly and precisely react to any kind of brushstroke, either delicate or abrupt.

The Quills and Mottlers feature micro-synthetic sable and are vegan-friendly. Other brush shapes in the Icon series feature a mix with natural sable hairs, creating a brush that behaves closer to pure sable but at a fraction of the price.
