Detailed Product Description:
This model is called a “Full Style”, which is elliptical in shape, similar to
a flat brush but with rounded edges—ideal for varnish application.
These fine brushes are imported from the legendary Omega Brushworks
of Bologna, Italy. This venerable firm produces a range of brushes made
with the famous Chinese boar bristles, noted for their resilience and durability.
China boar bristle is the traditional filling material for the highest quality
paint brushes. It is unique in that it is naturally tapered and flagged. China's
vast geography provides varying climates thus causing hog bristles to develop
stiffness characteristics on a regional basis. Each hair is split to produce
optimum softness.
All Omega brushes are handmade and packed full, without a spacer in the
ferrule. Unlike the epoxy setting of many brushes, Omega sets its bristles
in hard, vulcanized rubber – impervious to solvents – which is then seated
inside a stainless steel ferrule. All Omega brushes are mounted on balanced,
varnished, pecan handles. Quite simply, these are the world’s finest brushes.
Clear finishes achieve their full potential in appearance and longevity when
applied with an Omega brush. Only Omega natural bristles possess the fine,
flagged ends and required stiffness necessary to apply and smooth a finish.
An Omega brush will hold a substantial volume of varnish without dripping
And will produce a blemish free surface and a clean edge. The use of a top-
quality, professional-grade brush makes application less tedious and truly
a cathartic experience.
