Brushes occupy one of the special areas in our shop, as we have
a great many types and the whole subject is complex, the following
details should help your understanding. The greatest care has
been applied to every brush, both in the manufacture and in its
particular use and application. Chinese brushes divide into 3
main groups of hair, these are Goat, Wolf and Mixed hair.
