Winsor & Newton Series 7 Brush Set of 3

After finally getting around to using these brushes, I am sad to say that they are not what I expected. Perhaps the price was too good to be true, but I find all of the brushes in this set to fall way below my expectation, for one glaring fault - they do not hold a point. The #4 is the best of the bunch, but the #5 and #6 are both splayed at the end after wetting and removing the excess water. I have much cheaper sables than these that perform a lot better. For the claim made about these brushes, I am bitterly disappointed. Perhaps these are seconds and are packaged in the set at an attractive price, but they are still not worth the money.

I purchased both the sets on offer of the fine Series 7 brushes, and so pleased that I did. They all (7) brushes perform beautifully. Excellent value for money. I liked the small label inside the presentation boxes with the signature of the craftsperson who made the brushes by hand. Great Value. Thank You

These set is a perfect value. I now believe that 7 series is the best of among all. If you buy it for yourself you don't care but a wooden box may make it better for a gift.
