Looking like small shoe brushes, these traditional Japanese printmaking brushes are beautifully crafted from black horse tail hair set into a wooden back.
The bristles of these brushes need to be shaped and split by singeing and then rubbing them on a rough surface (see Dragon Skin). Complete instructions on splitting the bristles can be found by clicking here.
Be sure to soak the entire brush, including the handle, in clear water for about 10 minutes before each use to help prevent shedding.
