About the product

Opus Allegro Watercolour Brush Assorted Set of 5

Wake up your watercolour paint with these soft and incredibly thirsty brushes!

Opus Allegro Brushes are artist quality brushes made with synthetic sable – an animal- and environment-friendly alternative to animal fur, with comparable working qualities. These bristles are designed to carry an incredible amount of water, helping you apply colour in beautiful sweeping washes.

Opus Allegro Watercolour Brush Set of 5 includes:

  • 1 Round size 2
  • 1 Round size 4
  • 1 Round size 6
  • 1 Round size 10
  • 1 Flat size 1/2"

Customers praised these watercolor brushes for their quality and value. Reviewers noted they "hold lots of paint and keep their point for detailed work" with "the right amount of stiffness." Many customers purchased multiple sets over the years. Some beginners noted the tips could be more pointed and hairs occasionally stick out, but overall satisfaction was high.

These are the brushes I always reach for!

I have had three sets of these brushes since beginning watercolour six years ago. The first ones are quite worn, but they are useful for mixing pigments and roughing in foliage, grasses, etc. The second set I keep at home and the third (new) set, I keep in my carry-bag for watercolour classes. I have more expensive brushes, but I always reach for the Allegros!

A great set of brushes

I am really happy with the brush set. I showed them to an artist friend of mine and she ordered a set for herself.

Okay

These brushes are okay for a beginner like me but I will be upgrading when I have more experience. The tip could be more pointed and some of the hairs don't lie straight but stick out.

Bought for a friend

I bought this for a friend who is just starting out in using watercolor. I'm not sure she's had time to use it yet as she's just finishing a university semester and is very busy. She was thrilled to receive it though

Love these brushes

With just the right amount of stiffness, these brushes hold lots of paint and keep their point for detailed work.
