Winsor & Newton Series 7 Kolinsky Sable Brushes

Winsor & Newton Series 7 is the world’s finest watercolor brush. The standards of quality for this brush were set in 1866, when Her Majesty Queen Victoria gave orders that Winsor & Newton should produce the very finest watercolor brushes in her favorite size; the No.7.

Today, Winsor & Newton Series 7 is manufactured from only the finest pure Kolinsky Sable hair, in rust-proof, seamless nickel plated ferrules with black polished handles. Winsor & Newton Series 7 watercolor brushes are handmade, using only the highest quality raw materials. For larger sizes, each brush is packed into an individual box with a tag included to indicate the name of the Series 7 brush maker who made that particular brush.

Winsor & Newton Series 7 fulfills the essential qualities that define the finest watercolor brush for artists. Each artist brush comes to a crisp point which is maintained during use. The artist brush snaps crisply back into shape with the right degree of spring to allow the artist superior control between the brush and painting surface. The color flows evenly and consistently from the point, with enough color carrying capacity in the belly of the brush to allow flowing gestural strokes.

For artists who appreciate exquisite quality and longevity, there is no other brush than the Series 7. Today, just as in 1866, the Series 7 is made for those who understand that the quality of the brush will be reflected in the quality of their work.
