Small Decorative Chinese Calligraphy Brush - plastic beads

Decorative Chinese Brushes:

- These small decorative brushes measuring 24 to 26 cm are designed exclusively as art objects. The handle, made of stone or fine porcelain, is polished and hand‑painted with traditional Chinese motifs or contemporary designs, offering a perfect balance of color and texture.

- The stone beads (jasper, agate, tiger’s eye, etc.) or porcelain spheres, meticulously assembled, form an ornamental handle that captures the light and draws the eye. Each piece is unique: shades, veins, and decoration vary across artisan series.

- Although crafted with natural horsehair bristles, the hairs are sealed to ensure lasting integrity. They create a dense, uniform tuft that provides an elegant contrast with the ornate handle and evokes the calligraphic tradition without functional use.

- Artisans and designers join forces to transform each decorative brush into a true sculpture to display or hang. The heritage of the “Four Treasures of the Scholar” lives on here as a collectible object, honoring China’s millennial art.

Features & Finishes:

- Stone or Porcelain Handle: Noble, durable, and slightly weighted materials, offering optimal stability when displayed on furniture, a stand, or a glass shelf.

- Artisanal Assembly: Beads are strung onto a rigid core, then adjusted and varnished to create a harmonious whole. The finish ensures lasting shine and protects the motif pigments.

- Sealed Bristles: Horsehair is secured with a discreet ferrule, ensuring a uniform profile and silky touch, with no risk of fraying or degradation over time.

Culture & Heritage:

- Inspired by calligraphy, these decorative brushes evoke the soul of Chinese art, founded over 4,000 years ago. They pay tribute to Cang Jie and the central role of brushes in Oriental aesthetics.

- Lotus patterns, stylized clouds, ideograms, and arabesques recycle visual codes from Tang and Qing dynasties, reinvented in a contemporary spirit to integrate into modern décor.

Decoration & Display:

- Display: Fan them out on a stand, line them up on a shelf dedicated to art objects, or hang them on a wall-mounted rack: their slender silhouette and captivating relief attract all eyes.

- Gift & Collection: Offer a piece of Chinese tradition to loved ones or enrich your personal collection. Each brush is delivered in a protective case, ready to be admired or showcased.
