Winsor & Newton - Series 340 Pony & Goat Hair Mop Brushes
Blend and soften watercolors with a full 2-inch head of natural hair
Pony and goat hair create the soft, absorbent blend that makes these mops excel at washes and blending work. The mixed fibers hold substantial amounts of water while maintaining enough spring to control flow, essential for graded washes that need to stay smooth and even. Two-inch hair length provides the reach necessary for covering large areas without constant reloading, while seamless aluminum ferrules prevent the shedding and loosening that plague lesser brushes after repeated soaking.
Short handles offer the close control watercolorists need when working at easels or flat tables. The hair's natural softness won't disturb underlying layers during blending or glazing, making these mops particularly valuable for atmospheric effects and subtle color transitions. White polished handles with black tips provide easy identification in mixed brush collections.
Winsor & Newton constructs these mops to withstand the rigors of watercolor technique, full immersion, vigorous loading, and the kind of repeated use that reveals construction quality. Whether you're laying in sky washes or softening edges in portraiture, these brushes deliver the water capacity and gentle touch that fluid techniques demand.
