Princeton Best Synthetic Sable Cat’s Tongue

Series 4050CT

Photos

Reviews

There's no watercolor effect you can't create with the versatile cat's tongue brush. The unique shape of the hair makes it a perfect cross between round, bright, and flat, allowing for particular control with details. It's also effective for dry brushing.

The hair is a thick synthetic sable that holds more color and water, has more snap, and produces a better point. It looks like sable and performs like it.

Princeton's Series 4050 brushes feature a rich, distinctive gold ferrule and marbleized red hardwood handles.

Note — Brush sizes are not standardized. The length and width of a brush of a given shape and size varies considerably by manufacturer. Since fine art brushes are handmade, expect some variation even among brushes from a given manufacturer.

I bought one of these 6 years ago I think and use it constantly in oil painting to fan out glazes. I've even used it to apply varnish since it's so smooth. It's almost as good as new still!

Comments about Princeton Best Synthetic Sable Angular Flat Wash Series 4050AFW:

It just goes to show that whoever coined the phrase "you get what you pay for" was a Blick customer. I have been trying to learn wash technique for a while and had held out buying wash specific brushes. WOW what a difference when I picked up the Blick catalog and ordered wash brushes. I now feel like I am getting somewhere with my new attempts. Thanks Dick Blick...
