Jackson's Icon Brush Set B700-8,702-1/2,777-2

This Jackson's Icon brush set contains three brushes from the Icon range, supplied in a card-backed plastic wallet.

The first is a Series 777 quill (size two). A synthetic quill is used for the ferrule of the brush, instead of a natural feather quill, and then wires are bound around it to hold it to the handle. This makes the Series 777 a more durable brush than the equivalent natural quill brushes.

The second brush is a B700 Sable-Synthetic blend round (Size 8) and the final brush is a Series 702 1/2 inch flat brush, perfect for smooth washes. These brushes are both made from a mix of sable and synthetic fibres. They offer a durable alternative to traditional sable brushes.

Good price if you want to try some Jackson's Icon brushes. I was already familiar with the synthetic quill's fibres and the mix of sable and synthetic fibres of the round and flat, but I had never tried big brushes like these. The round is quite snappy and feels very different from natual sable but allows very precise strokes. The flat is soft and releases water evenly as the quill, which is very big for my standard but comes to a fine point. (Posted on 02/03/2021)

As a beginner in watercolour I was delighted with these brushes. They hold a lot of water and retain a point when you want one. They are great quality and excellent value for money. Go ahead and try them you won’t be disappointed. (Posted on 29/08/2020)

All brushes hold a lot of water/color and retain their shape. The flat and quill do excellent washes, the quill is much larger than other size 2s I have, was a nice surprise. The round is nice and snappy, I've only tested them a bit but I can tell these brushes will be my new favorites. Excellent price and quality as always from Jackson's products, high end performance for low cost. (Posted on 06/01/2020)

Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this set and, first of all, was taking them for gouache. But I was really impressed how the quill handles the watercolor and now it is my one of most used brushes! I've used squirrel quills before and don't like the fact that they have too much water and not so easily pick up a pigment. But with this one everything changed, it's perfect for my style (i use small areas of wet-in-wet and prefer constantly mixing colors directly on paper): it's not too wet, easily picks up a looooooot of pigment (sometimes even too much ha-ha), holds the point, could be used for big expressive strokes and detailing.

I have only tried these briefly, just a practice to see how they lay down and pick up water and pigment but this was enough to be impressed.
Once the gum was off they went effortless back into shape and on using them I found all act very well.
I have never used a quill before (I only recently started with watercolour) and if this is an example of what I can expect from a quill then I will definitely being investing in more quill brushes. The flat was equally impressive and although I didn't really need this brush I think it will probably replace the 0.5 inch flat I am currently using.
But it was the round that really impressed. This brush is fantastic to control and I was able to coax lines that you would expect from a small rigger from it's wonderful point, as well as a very smooth wash.
A bargain set in my opinion and I will definitely think of Jackson's Icon range first when I buy more brushes. (Posted on 15/06/2018)

Excellent brushes really delighted, they are superior in use and quality to some of my more expensive pure kolinsky brushes. Very well made, they hold a lot of water keep their shape have a lovely spring and are a pleasure to paint with. I will be purchasing more of this series of brushes in the future. Really good value for money. (Posted on 07/04/2017)

Along with several other jackson's watercolour brushes i ordered this set, which i also made up in to a full set of rounds and the 3/4"" and 1"" flats -i am delighted with all the brushes -and am both surprised and delighted at the shape retention, holding capacity and pointing of the quill brush -i purchased the set knowing that i wanted the round and flat in those sizes anyway, but the quill brush was initially 'just to try out'... -i can now see it becoming a 'go to' for it's versatility, comfortable size and it also holds a lot of liquid! -all arrived in perfect condition, very well protected by plenty of packaging, and very quick delivery. These came in the 1st delivery of 2 i have so far made, and i shall be ordering again soon. (Posted on 20/08/2015)

Love, love LOVE these brushes. I bought this set and now I am inseparable from my no8 round. These brushes hold the right amount of water, but still have the spring of synthetic brushes. (Posted on 20/08/2015)

Incredible quality in this brush set! I absolutely love the brushes and highly recommend them. The carrying capacity of these brushes is amazing for a synthetic.

I was expecting the 8 round to have a woodgrain handle like the 1/2 inch flat, but it was black and plastic in appearance. Not an issue as it's not the business end of the brush, but I thought I'd mention it. (Posted on 18/07/2015)
