CASANEO Synthetic Squirrel Travel Brushes – da Vinci

Price range: R315.00 through R1 199.00

Da Vinci’s Casaneo brushes are built around a specialised synthetic fibre that’s engineered to mimic the softness, fluidity and generous water capacity of natural squirrel hair. The fibres are exceptionally fine, with a gentle spring that gives just enough responsiveness without feeling stiff. This makes the range a favourite for artists who enjoy flowing washes, controlled gradients and smooth colour transitions.

Because the fibres hold a surprising amount of water and release it evenly, Casaneo brushes excel in watercolour, gouache and fluid ink work. They glide softly across the surface, allowing wide, expressive strokes as well as refined detailing when shaped to a fine point. Flats create crisp edges and velvety washes, rounds offer everyday versatility, sword liners make sweeping marks with elegant line variation, and riggers produce long, uninterrupted lines.

Description

The XS brushes are the compact stars of the range. They use the same Casaneo fibre but in a shorter, more agile format that gives you pinpoint control and a comfortable, lightweight feel. The flat XS delivers clean edges and silky washes. The sword XS creates sweeping curves and dynamic line variation. The round XS offers a crisp tip for everyday detail. The rigger XS is perfect for long, uninterrupted lines and elegant lettering. Their smaller size makes them easy to pack and even easier to handle when working in tighter spaces.

The Casaneo travel brushes take the same fibre performance and house it in sturdy pocket-safe bodies. The 893TP flat gives you generous coverage in a compact kit. The 1593TP round line spans sizes suitable for everything from fine detailing to broader strokes. The 1597TP slanted edge offers angled strokes and soft blends, while the 1598TP round and 1599TP liner bring precision to outdoor sketching. Each travel brush is designed to protect the fibres when closed, making them ideal for painting on location or carrying in a small pouch.
