About this craft

Nara has been Japan's center of brush manufacturing (fude-no-sato) since the 8th century. Akashiya masters the art of blending wool, horse, and synthetic hair to create specific bristle behavior — stiffness, spring, and paint-holding capacity — essential for lettering technique.

Description

Three-brush beginner set from Nara craftmaker Akashiya for paint lettering

Rinse brushes immediately after use with warm water and mild soap. Gently reshape bristles and lay flat or hang to dry. For dried paint, soak in warm soapy water for 15–20 minutes before rinsing. Natural hair shedding may occur. Store upright or hanging in cool, dry place.
