The Yangtze River Delta in central China has long been famous for producing China's finest goat hair. Therefore, since the Hidden Treasure is a brush made with 100% goat hair, all of it coming from the Yangtze River Delta region, the brush is one of the finest goat hair brushes available.

The tip of this fine brush is long and extra large, and these features, combined with the natural softness provided by the goat hair, make it great for calligraphy, though it is sometimes used for painting, as well. Please be advised, however, that the extraordinarily long tip makes the brush hard to precisely control for painting.

One of the most striking handles on any brush in the web shop, the curved buffalo horn handle's natural pattern resembles a snowy mountain. The overall appearance of the brush is absolutely breathtaking.

With its practical calligraphy uses combined with its sheer beauty, the Hidden Treasure more than lives up to its name.
