This Kyoshin Elle small goat hair calligraphy Fude brush is designed for writing Japanese Kanji and Chinese characters, Sumi-e painting, and applications involving water-based ink or dye. A Fude is a traditional East Asian brush used in calligraphy and ink painting, and this model features a pointed tip with soft, natural bristles that respond sensitively to pressure. The small size allows for increased ink capacity compared to the extra small brush, offering better balance between fine detailing and moderate stroke width.
This brush is suitable for Sumi-e painting, brush lettering, watercolour techniques, and writing Japanese or Chinese script on washi paper and other absorbent surfaces. It is especially well-suited for medium-detail illustrations and expressive character writing. The brush holds a generous amount of ink and allows for smooth, continuous strokes, making it a versatile choice for artists working with both fine linework and subtle shading.

Other variations (each sold separately):
• Extra Small - Deliver the highest precision, making them best for fine detail, intricate outlines, and writing smaller characters
• Medium - Balanced option that holds more ink than smaller brushes while offering better control than the large size; suitable for mixed techniques
• Large - Ideal for dynamic strokes, bold calligraphic work, and broad washes; offers good flexibility with moderate control; suited for expressive styles rather than intricate detail
To use the brush, immerse the bristles in your ink or dye and allow them to absorb pigment evenly. Lightly press the brush against the side of the inkstone or container to remove excess. Apply with gentle or variable pressure to control line weight and stroke texture. The goat hair tip delivers smooth, organic lines that respond to the nuances of each movement, making it effective for both beginners and experienced users.
After each use, rinse the brush thoroughly with lukewarm water. Ensure that no ink or pigment is left to dry on the bristles. Gently reshape the tip and hang the brush with the bristles facing downward to dry. Keep it away from hard surfaces, and store it in a dry, well-ventilated place, out of direct sunlight.
