BR06. W&N Cirrus size 1
Winsor & Newton Cirrus Kolinsky Sable Watercolor Brushes. 110 Rounds. Size 1.
Sheila Waters recommends these watercolor brushes as a less expensive alternative to Winsor & Newton Series 7. Georgia Deaver tested the brush for us and found it good for brush lettering. For illuminated initial letters you need the smallest sizes. For brush lettering the larger sizes would be more useful.
