Faux Sable is a blend of diameters and lengths to simulate the strength and color carrying capacity of sable hair. Its sharp, crisp edges replicate sable with true pointability in all rounds and liners. Sensitivity of touch normally found in only pure Red Sable provides long lasting performance with all mediums. Faux Sable combines handmade seamless double-crimped ferrules and multi-diameter synthetics with attractive cherry red-stained hardwood white birch handles to not only respond better than sable but also last longer.
