I purchased this over 10 years ago for tole painting, but it has been stored at home without being used. There may be some deterioration due to age, but please purchase only if you understand this. If there is someone who will use it with care, I would be grateful. *I am also listing other tole painting brushes. I will offer a small discount for those who purchase multiple items, so please feel free to contact me. - Brand: ATHENA - Series: 8000 - Size: #3 - Uses: Watercolor, oil painting, acrylic painting, tole painting - Color: Blue Thank you for viewing.
