Traditional Rabbit Hair Brush — Calligraphy & Ink Painting
Used for Chinese calligraphy, sumi-e, or ink wash painting, this traditional brush accompanies slow, precise, or broader movements depending on the size chosen.
The soft bristles made of genuine rabbit hair offer smooth ink absorption and a lively tip, capable of producing both fine lines and more organic variations.
Each size slightly alters the rhythm of the stroke:
-
Small size: ideal for details, small characters, and precise lines
-
Medium size: versatile balance for daily practice
-
Large size: suitable for wider movements, expressive characters, and washes

🤍 Ikane Studio Tip
A soft brush requires less forced control than a stiff brush. It follows the hand's pressure, breaths, and natural variations of movement more closely. The slower you go, the more precise it becomes.
