Exceptional Performance Without Endangered Mongoose Hair!
Established in 1793, Raphaël has been renowned for the impeccable quality of their artist’s brushes. With the banning of Mongoose harvesting due to their endangered status, brush makers have been scrambling to find an alternative to the beloved brush hair. It took years of research for Raphaël to create a brush that would replicate all the characteristics of their famed KEVRIN without using its original Mongoose composition. A blend of several natural hairs and a proprietary groundbreaking synthetic fiber enabled the creation of the perfect Mongoose substitute, called KEVRIN+. KEVRIN+ offers the same exceptional durability, precision, and elasticity as their original Mongoose brushes, with the same ideal consistency, spring, and bristle shape memory. Like the old Mongoose brushes, the new hair blend has the suppleness of a red sable with the strength of hog bristle, but with a texture and firmness somewhere in between. Brushes are easy to clean and offer excellent paint retention. KEVRIN+ still has the elegant, long, double-dipped black lacquered handles and nickel-plated ferrules of their original design.
- Natural and synthetic hairs
- Ideal resiliency and spring
- Bristle shape memory
- Nickel-plated ferrules
- Oil, alkyd, and acrylic painters
- Glazing and general painting
- Ease of cleaning
- Mongoose brush enthusiasts
