Good absorption, needs breaking in
The brushes held a lot of ink, which was great for long practice sessions. They felt a bit stiff initially but softened up beautifully after a few uses.

Best beginner set I've found
I tried several brands before settling on Shanlian. The consistency across all three brushes in the set is impressive. No defects, just pure writing joy.

Perfect for starting my calligraphy journey
These brushes are incredibly responsive. The mixed hair holds ink well without dripping, making it easy to practice regular script. Highly recommended for beginners.

Excellent for running script
I was surprised by how well these handle faster, flowing strokes. The tip snaps back nicely, which is crucial for running script. Very happy with this set.

Great quality for the price
The bristles are soft yet firm enough for controlled strokes. I noticed a slight shedding in the first wash, but it stopped afterward. Overall, a solid purchase.

Traditional craftsmanship
You can feel the quality in the bamboo handle and the binding. These brushes remind me of the ones my grandfather used. Authentic and reliable.
Q: Can these be used for Sumi-e painting as well?
A: Yes, while designed for calligraphy, the medium size and mixed hair make them suitable for basic Sumi-e brush painting techniques.
Q: How should I clean these brushes after use?
A: Gently rinse the bristles with lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Reshape the tip and hang the brush vertically to dry. Avoid soaking the handle.
Q: What is the length of the brush handles?
A: The bamboo handles are approximately 26 cm (about 10.2 inches) in length, providing a comfortable grip for various writing postures.
Q: Is the wolf hair real or synthetic?
A: The brushes feature genuine mixed hair, combining wolf hair for resilience and goat hair for softness and ink retention.
Q: Do these brushes come with an ink stone or just the brushes?
A: This specific listing includes only the three calligraphy brushes. Ink stones and paper are sold separately.
