    Hairtypes in this set :

    PRADO series brushes are made of TAME hair :


    It is one of the most valued synthetic fibers because of its similarity to sable hair.
    It not only imitates its color, but it also imitates its spring and absorption of liquids.
    Thanks to the perfect combination of three different diameters and three lengths in the fibers the brushstroke’s result is the same as one made of natural hair.

    GRAFILO series brushes are made of KOLINSKY-TAJMIR hair:

    This type of hair is considered the elite type of hair for watercolour. Escoda only selects the best hair of the male martens for these brushes. These originate from the region around Tajmir in the extreme north of Siberia. Forms a perfect point and has an incredible fluid-retention capacity.
