I purchased these brushes over 10 years ago for tole painting, but they have been stored at home without being used. The other brushes were bundled together with a rubber band, which melted and adhered to the exterior. Please check the third photo. There may be some age-related deterioration, but please purchase only if you understand this. If there is someone who will use them with care, I would be very happy. *I am also selling 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: 9000 - Size: #00 - Uses: Acrylic painting, watercolor, oil painting - Material: Horsehair - Features: Professional brush Thank you for looking.
