Winsor & Newton Artists' Water Colour Sable, round No. 10 — watercolour brush in natural Kolinsky sable hair
Winsor & Newton round watercolour brush, No. 10, in natural Kolinsky sable hair, a hair of animal origin. Short birch handle, sculpted with a matt finish, and a seamless nickel ferrule. Handmade. The No. 10 has a 6.3 mm diameter ferrule and 27 mm of visible hair. The rounds in the range run from No. 00 to No. 12.
What is it used for?
- Watercolour painting: the range brings together the most common and useful brush shapes for painting in watercolour, and was developed with the input of professional watercolourists.
- Fine detail, lines and glazes: this is the work the rounds in this range are designed for.
- Work that calls for accuracy and detail: the traditional round shape is the right one in that case.
- In Conservation-Restoration (C&R), Kolinsky sable watercolour rounds are used for retouching.
Why choose the Artists' Water Colour Sable round No. 10?
- Natural Kolinsky sable hair.
- Handmade, like all the brushes in the range.
- Seamless nickel ferrule.
- Birch handle, sculpted with a matt finish.
- No. 10, with a 6.3 mm diameter ferrule and 27 mm of visible hair.
Presentation and storage
- Presentation: 1 round brush No. 10, short handle
- Dimensions: 6.3 mm diameter ferrule and 27 mm of visible hair
- Drying: squeeze the water out against a lint-free cloth, reshape the tip with your fingers and dry upright, with the hair pointing up, until the ferrule and handle are dry.
- Storage: in a pot, only when completely dry.
The range is also sold under the name Professional Watercolour Sable.
Caring for the brush: what to avoid
- Never hot water: it coagulates the paint and damages the brush. Wash with cool water or, at most, lukewarm.
- No harsh soaps: they strip the natural oils from the hair. Wash with a little mild soap.
- Do not store it damp: it goes in the pot when completely dry and with the tip reshaped.
Frequently asked questions

What hair is it?

Is it the same brush as the Professional Watercolour Sable?

How do I clean it?
After each session, remove the excess colour with a lint-free cloth and rinse under the tap. Wash with cool water and a little mild soap, rolling the brush in the palm of your hand, and repeat until the water runs clear. If lukewarm water is used, never hot: hot water coagulates the paint and damages the brush. Harsh soaps are avoided, as they strip the natural oils from the hair.
Do colour stains on the hair mean it is damaged?
No. Slight stains are normal and do not affect the performance of the brush.
Is it used in Conservation-Restoration?
