Raphael Stradivarius Synthetic Kolinsky Brushes - 8348 Round Sharp Point

The Raphael Stradivarius 8348 Round Sharp Point is a premium synthetic Kolinsky brush designed for artists who need a needle‑fine point with exceptional control. This series is engineered to replicate the performance of natural Kolinsky—offering superb spring, snap, colour‑holding capacity, and durability—while remaining fully synthetic and cruelty‑free.

The 8348 shape features a longer, sharper, more tapered point than the 8344, making it ideal for ultra‑precise linework, botanical detailing, miniature painting, calligraphy flourishes, and controlled watercolour techniques.
