【Nara - Akashiya Brush Craftsman】
For brush making, over a dozen types of animal hair are selected, chosen for their ideal balance of softness and stiffness, and their excellent ink-holding ability. The brush quality varies depending on the animal species, the time of year the hair is collected, and the part of the body from which the hair is taken.
The brush-making technique, which skillfully combines these diverse hair types with varying elasticity, strength, and length, is the result of many years of experience and research by brush craftsmen.
Combined with traditional techniques, Nara brushes continue to be produced with exquisitely refined tips.
