Have a closer look at the picture this brush paints and you will see a Japanese volcano mountain with the sun setting over it, and some long clouds strung out over the skyline, pretty nifty if you ask me! The timber used is African wild olive that has been turned to a simple trumpet shape. We haved fitted this brush with a 24 mm Bodger knot made from 50% Silvertip badger and 50% boar bristle.
The brush stands 110 mm tall, has a base of 40 mm and a collar of 32 mm. The brush weighs 66 grams.
The theme of this brush ties in with our 'African Rainbow' range in a new way in that the bulk part of resin is replaced with coarse salt, and not just any type of salt either, one of the purest forms of salt on the planet!
We obtain the salt from www.Oryxsdesertsalt.co.za, who harvests it from the Kalahari region where the salt is a ever-replenishing, renewable source. This source was discovered beneath a 50 km2 salt pan where three underground streams converge and replenish an ancient underground salt lake of 55 million tons from which the salt water is deposited into pans under the hot Kalahari sun and sun-dried. This process lives in harmony with the natural rainfall and the surrounding environment, wisely they only extract what nature provides. Did you know there is a 90% chance you are consuming salt with plastics in it? Read this and reconsider changing to 'Oryx' for the benefit of yourself and also the environment, their online service is top notch, even before I started using their salt in brushes I bought buckets from them that lasted me years!
