Conservation Brushes
Brushes used in restoration work must feature non-shedding, chemical-resistant hairs and ferrule designs that contain zero rust-prone metals.
-
- Hake & Mizubake Brushes: Flat, wide Japanese brushes crafted from incredibly soft sheep or goat hair. They are tied directly to split-bamboo handles without a metal ferrule. These are used for safely applying delicate wheat-starch pastes, dusting fragile papers, or laying down water during leaf casting.
- Stippling & Stencil Brushes: Short, densely packed natural hog-bristle brushes. They allow a conservator to precisely drive leather dyes, structural acrylics, or fills into damaged book spines or canvas losses using a vertical dabbing motion.
- Dusting & Static Brushes: Premium camel-hair, marten, or synthetic static-conductive brushes. They lift superficial dust or graphite dust cleanly away from photographs, charcoal drawings, and fragile objects without scratching vulnerable surfaces.
- Paste & Glue Applicators: Stiff-bristled round or chisel-tip synthetic brushes. They withstand highly viscous conservation adhesives (like Jade 403 PVA) and can be washed and reused repeatedly without fiber shedding.
