Long, slender handle makes them easy to hold. Perfect for easel projects and have a great grip. Each are uniquely handmade. Best for acrylic and oil paints.
Cons
The bristles fall out. Not just one or two, but chunks. They appear & feel to be mostly synthetic.

However while cleaning them i found that the big size 12 and 8 brushes had loose ferrules

I do think that if possible a brush guard would be beneficial for keeping the bristles safe in transit i know they came in individual sleeves but the brush guards would add an extra layer of protection

They offered to send replacements and when i got them i found that they were very sturdy had no loose ferrules and the bristles were not splayed or anything
