Borciani e Bonazzi, Molinari Travel Brush, Series 700

Les Series 700 Silvia Molinari Round Tip Travel Brush is a precision tool designed for watercolor and oil shading, created in collaboration with botanical watercolorist Silvia Molinari. Tailored for artists who paint on the go, this brush combines advanced synthetic fibers with a durable, travel-friendly design, making it ideal for plein air painting, sketching, and detailed work on location.

Key Features

• Imitation Squirrel Synthetic Fibre: The round tip features high-quality, microporous synthetic fibers that mimic the water retention and absorbency of natural squirrel hair. The fibers hold a large amount of water but release it only when pressed, offering excellent control and gradual flow for precision painting.
• Brass Handle with Closable Cap: The ergonomic grey resin handle is both sturdy and stable, offering superior balance compared to traditional wooden handles. It’s designed to be immersed in water without warping, ensuring durability. The handle features a solid brass capsule with a large diameter for a firm, comfortable grip during detailed strokes. The cap is perforated at the end to allow airflow, helping the brush dry quickly after use.
• Nickel-Plated Brass Ferrule: The nickel-plated ferrule securely holds the synthetic fibers, ensuring long-lasting performance and precision, ideal for small, delicate strokes.
• Compact & Portable: The brush’s closable cap and compact size make it easy to carry, whether you’re traveling or painting outdoors. The cap also bears an identification number, so you can easily recognize the brush size without opening it.

Ideal for Detailed Work

Les Series 700 Silvia Molinari brush is perfect for intricate tasks like defining petals, leaves, highlights, and small sketches of people or objects. Its round tip and precise control make it particularly suited for use in sketchbooks, travel journals, carnets de voyage, and other compact painting formats.
