I love this brush very much. This is my favorite. I was introduced into Da Vinci brushes by one of the watercolor books I read and recommendation from Handprint: Watercolor website. It is very springy and has nice stiffness but absorbs very good amount of color. I have compared this brush to a similar red sable Escoda line at Dick Blick and you can tell the Da Vinci is superior both in craftsmanship and how generous the amount of red sable put into the ferrule. The Da Vinci is significantly longer and robust compared to a similar sized Escoda.

I couldn't afford Kolinsky so this is a good alternative. It says "FINEST RED SABLE" on the lacquered handle. It is not esagonal though. I think this model is available only in Europe.
