Winsor & Newton - Series 995 Aquarelle Golden Nylon Brushes
Professional watercolor brushes with burnishing tips for lifting color
Golden nylon filaments in these watercolor brushes combine spring and softness, holding their shape through aggressive washes while maintaining the gentle touch watercolor demands. The synthetic construction eliminates shedding issues common with natural hair brushes, keeping stray fibers out of delicate glazes and graduated washes.
Winsor & Newton engineered these brushes with practical features that extend beyond basic painting. Beveled handle tips function as burnishing tools for lifting color, creating highlights in damp washes, or scraping through layers for texture effects. Nickel-plated seamless ferrules resist corrosion from repeated water exposure while securing filaments firmly enough to handle vigorous scrubbing techniques. Clear plastic handles let you see paint concentration at a glance when mixing or testing colors.
The golden nylon performs consistently across watercolor techniques, from controlled botanical details to loose atmospheric washes, without the maintenance requirements of natural hair alternatives. These brushes maintain their snap and point through countless painting sessions, making them reliable tools for artists who work through multiple studies or large-scale pieces where brush fatigue would compromise natural fiber alternatives.
