Pro Arte Series 009 Prolene Plus Filbert Brushes

The Prolene Plus range is the flagship of the prolene collection.  It represents a pinnacle of achievement with a wide variety of synthetic filaments which are ferruled in beautiful gold plate and fashioned with teak handles.  They have a delightful 'spring', they point in a most pleasing manner and they hold colour in a wonderful way.  Truly a modern miracle of science from Pro Arte.

A filbert is a narrow, flat brush with hairs that come to a rounded point. Used on its side, a filbert gives a thin line; used flat it produces a broad brush stroke; and by varying the pressure as you apply the brush to canvas, or flicking it across, you can get a tapering mark.
