Authentic quality as described
I was skeptical about ordering online, but the Xuanyitang brand delivers genuine quality. The hair gathers into a perfect point even when wet, making it ideal for small Regular Script. Highly recommended for serious students.

Great brushes, requires break-in
The craftsmanship is evident, especially in the ferrule construction. The brushes were quite stiff out of the package, which is typical for high-quality rat whisker, but after a few uses and proper washing, they softened up nicely without losing their shape.

Superior to synthetic alternatives
Switching from synthetic to this authentic rat-whisker set has improved my calligraphy significantly. The natural hair holds ink better and provides the necessary resistance for controlled movement. The ebony handles are also very elegant.

Excellent value for a professional set
For the price, getting three distinct sizes of high-grade rat whisker brushes is a steal. The only reason I didn't give five stars is that the packaging tube was slightly dented upon arrival, though the brushes themselves were untouched and perfect.

Perfect for Clerical Script details
The large brush in this set is fantastic for the sweeping strokes of Clerical Script, while the small one captures the intricate details perfectly. The ink flow is consistent, and there is no shedding so far after a month of daily practice.

Exceptional control for Running Script
These rat-whisker brushes offer incredible snap and precision. I primarily use them for practicing the Two Wangs style, and the medium brush handles the transitions between thick and thin strokes beautifully. The ebony handle feels substantial and balanced in the hand.
Q: How should I clean these brushes after using heavy ink?
A: Gently rinse the bristles under lukewarm running water until the water runs clear. Do not soak the handle or ferrule. Reshape the tip and hang the brush vertically to dry naturally.
Q: Does this set come with a stand or holder?
A: This specific set includes the three brushes and protective bamboo tubes for storage, but a desktop brush stand is sold separately.
Q: Are these brushes suitable for absolute beginners?
A: While beginners can use them, rat-whisker brushes are quite elastic and require some control. We recommend them for intermediate to advanced practitioners or dedicated beginners willing to learn proper pressure control.
Q: Can these brushes be used with colored liquid ink or only black stick ink?
A: These brushes work excellently with both traditional ground stick ink and high-quality liquid calligraphy ink. We advise against using acrylics or paints with high viscosity as they may damage the delicate natural hairs.
Q: What is the approximate length of the hair tuft on the medium brush?
A: The hair tuft on the medium brush is approximately 4.5 cm long, providing a good balance between flexibility and stability for standard character sizes.
