Sable brushes are the gold standard for watercolour painting — prized by professional artists and serious students for their exceptional spring, fine point retention, and ability to hold a generous reservoir of paint. At Just the Brush, we stock a carefully curated range of pure sable brushes from the world's leading brush makers.
Kolinsky sable, taken from the tail of the Siberian weasel, is widely regarded as the finest natural hair available for watercolour brushwork. Its unique tapered structure allows each brush to snap back to a perfect point after every stroke, giving you unrivalled control whether you're laying a broad wash or painting the finest detail.
Our sable range includes rounds, mops, and specialist shapes from brands including Da Vinci, Winsor & Newton, Pro Arte, and Daler-Rowney — available in sizes from 10/0 to 12 and beyond.
