Brush Town Hand-Carried Collection · Second Release
A refined point. A solid feel. A distinctive character.
Inspired by the compact beauty of a plum blossom bud, Plum Bud combines an elongated, finely tapered tip with a fuller brush body to deliver a distinctive balance of precision, responsiveness, and control.
Its resilient tip flexes naturally during a stroke and returns to a fine point, allowing artists to move confidently between expressive brushwork and delicate detail. The fuller construction provides greater stability and makes the brush easier to control than brushes with a similarly elongated but more delicate tip.
The experience extends beyond the brush head. Plum Bud features a distinctly weighted handle that creates a satisfying, substantial feel in the hand. A striking blue wood accent adds another element of individuality - a handle detail we have never previously offered in our brush collection.
A Brush with Its Own Personality
Every brush has a character. Plum Bud stands out for its combination of a resilient pointed tip, balanced control, and distinctive handle design. It is an intriguing addition for artists who appreciate the subtle differences in how individual brushes respond to their touch.
A Brush Town Discovery
Plum Bud is part of the first release of our Brush Town Hand-Carried Collection, a growing series of distinctive, limited-edition brushes personally selected during our journey to China’s renowned brushmaking region.
During our visit, we encountered artisans meticulously assembling brushes by hand, carefully selecting and arranging individual hairs to create tools with unique working characteristics. We were inspired by the craftsmanship, variety, and individuality of the brushes we discovered.
We hand-carried this collection home to share some of those discoveries with our community of artists.
The first release of a broader collection celebrating the craftsmanship and individuality of Chinese painting brushes.
Limited edition. Individually selected. Hand-carried from Brush Town, China.
