CHORYU: The Definitive Sumi-e Brush

The CHORYU is the signature brush used in Sumi-e (Japanese sumi ink painting).

It boasts excellent ink retention and features a strong, yet responsive elasticity from the belly to the tip of the brush head. This perfect balance makes the tip easy to control, making it the go-to brush for artists of all levels, from beginners to experts.
