Fuumuui Gray Squirrel Hair Brush – Soft Tip with Strong Water Retention, Smooth Handle and Hanging Cord

This single traditional brush features a carefully crafted tip made from high-grade gray squirrel hair, known for its exceptional softness and excellent water retention. Ideal for smooth, expressive strokes and fluid washes, the brush delivers refined control while holding a generous amount of ink or pigment—perfect for calligraphy, watercolor, or sumi-e.

Gray squirrel hair is naturally delicate and fine, offering unmatched sensitivity and flow. However, due to its softness, it is susceptible to breakage in humid or poorly ventilated conditions. To ensure long-term use, it is essential to fully air-dry the brush after each session. Storing it while still damp inside a sealed brush cap may lead to odor, hair breakage, and compromised performance over time.

The handle is made through a multi-step polishing and finishing process, resulting in an incredibly smooth and balanced grip that feels comfortable in hand. At the end of the brush is a built-in hanging cord, allowing for easy drying and storage after use—an essential feature for protecting the integrity of natural hair brushes.

Combining traditional craftsmanship with practical design, this brush is an excellent choice for artists who value precision, sensitivity, and proper care in their tools.
