Bless you. They are epic. Our credit cards will for ever continue to whimper. 🤣

@micheleclamp.com quickly reminded me that it’s the escoda reserva kolinsky tajmyr sable is the one that makes the credit card really whimper. Michele is a big fan of all escoda brushes. And Christmas presents. And birthday presents. :-)

I have not tried their kolinsky sable. Good sable brushes really are the best. The few I have are from Winsor & Newton Series 7 - superb. 1/

I know sable is preferred, but I've tried over last several yrs to avoid (mostly) natural fiber & tried the synthetic. It's so different, much stiffer & carries less water. But for synthetic, I do love the Escoda Perla 2/

Even synthetic Escoda can make my credit card whimper, so I appreciate both the joy & pain you and your wife experience with sable ones 😄 But life is short and good brushes should be enjoyed! Thanks again for your encouraging comments 3/3

You've reignited my desire for a W&N series 7 again. Charles Reid used to swear by them and if they're good enough for him.... 😀

And all #Escoda brushes are great. Beautiful points on them.

Yes, exactly. Amazingly rare thing, I've found
