Chinese Calligraphy Brush – Bai Yun Soft Mixed-Hair for Beginners

Begin your Chinese calligraphy practice with the Bai Yun soft mixed-hair brush from Wen Xin Tang. Its pointed tip and bamboo handle offer a traditional introduction to ink writing on Xuan paper, with three sizes to match the characters you want to practice.

A Bai Yun Brush for Beginners

The Gu Fa Bai Yun combines soft mixed hair with a fine point for exploring changes in stroke width and brush pressure. Use it to practice regular, running, clerical and seal scripts as you build familiarity with traditional brushwork.

For Calligraphy and Chinese Painting

Alongside writing, this Chinese painting brush suits Gongbi color washes, freehand ink painting, Sumi-e and watercolor. Its soft tip holds ink or color for both flowing strokes and gentle applications.
