I purchased this brush over 10 years ago for tole painting, but it has been stored at home without being used. Other brushes were bundled together with rubber bands, and the rubber bands melted and stuck to the exterior, as you can see in the third photo. There may be some deterioration due to age, so please purchase only if you understand this. If there is someone who will use it 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: #3 - Purpose: Tole painting brush - Bristle type: Soft bristles - Country of manufacture: Japan - Package contents: 1 brush Thank you for looking.
