daVinci Maestro 2 bristle brushes are double-boiled so they are not too stiff and to give them extra spring and life. This allows for maximum stroke control that is not possible with overly stiff bristle. They are "interlock" constructed so they keep their form after long and vigorous use. While being hand shaped, stiffer, fat bristles are removed to ensure better "flags" at the tips, which hold and carry color for better control than bristle that is simply cut flat at the end. Seamless, nickel-plated brass ferrules ensure durability and are mounted on beautiful two tone handles. (USA sized means a bigger brush for your money!) Find a dealer!

Round: Well-rounded point carries large amount of heavy or fluid paint.
Bright: Short flat for use with heavy paint shows definitive brush strokes and tight control.
Flat: Longer flat holds large amounts of paint, delivers a longer stroke, and has the ability to blend colors easier than a bright.
Filbert: Shaped to trap color for a tapered stroke and a soft edge.
Short Filbert: Has more rounded corners for a tapered stroke, soft edge, and increased control.
Slant: Shaped for cutting-in color in small areas or detail work. Versatile, helpful for landscape painters.
Spalter (Wide Flat): 12" handle and extra wide brush-head width are great for large scale painting or applying grounds.

Fresco Bristle Long Rounds & Long Filberts are designed for painting on wet, plastered surfaces and for mural painting on dry stucco. Their unique shape and length make them a favorite of painters who use heavy bodied oils and acrylics. (Please note European sizing which is smaller than USA sizing).
