## Description

Winsor & Newton Series 7 - The World's Finest Water Color Brush. More than any other tool, the brush is a direct and fluid extension of the artist’s hand, eye and expressive vision. It is with that principle in mind that Winsor & Newton has crafted fine artists’ brushes for over 150 years, earning a reputation for making the world’s finest from the very best raw materials. The standards of quality for this brush were set in 1866, when her majesty Queen Victoria gave orders that Winsor & Newton, holders of the Royal Warrant, be commanded to produce the very finest water color brushes in her favorite size the No. 7. The resulting brush known as the Series 7 and the standards of quality set in 1866 are the same today. There are three essential qualities that define the finest water color brush: Point, Snap & Spring and Flow Control. Since 1866, the handmade Series 7 has proven itself to be the standard –bearer in all those qualities, offering a rapier-like point, perfectly balanced spring with extraordinary capacity and flow control. For artists who appreciate exquisite quality and longevity, there is no other brush than the Winsor & Newton Series 7.

Review: Amazing Brand - First Product Immediately Cracked, Refund Performs Very Well - Edit: The brush that was received to replace the faulty one has not cracked and performs very well. The sable hairs will split when dry but when wet they keep a very impressive point. Changing to 5 stars Original Review: I love this brand and will continue to purchase these brushes… but I’m only giving it four stars because the $60 #6 immediately cracked around the base of the ferrule after an hour of use. I’ve had brushes last ten years without this happening - I’m more surprised than disappointed. The replacement brush looks like it’ll last longer. Nothing holds paint like Sable and these brushes feel very nice. I did a blind test against the S7 and a cheap Sable off desertcart and could definitely feel the difference. Part of the reason I buy this brand of brushes is because I hope to give them to my kids one day - this purchase did not instill confidence.
Review: Wow - I have been an amateur miniature painter for a few years now and decided to get some better brushes. I previously thought the cheap synthetic brushes and the very cost-effective Kolinsky brushes that were $25 a pack of 3 were sufficient to paint. However, I have decided to try and elevate my painting. Since I started getting significantly better miniature paints, I decided I needed to get a high quality Kolinsky brush to paint with. As this one is highly recommended by a lot of miniature painters, I decided to give it a try. After years of using brushes that probably have not cost more than $2 in the past (with exception to a really cheap Kolinksy brush), this one is a game changer. Holds paint very well, keeps a tip, and is very smooth and accurate. As others have pointed out, you do often get a stray hair or two, but cutting them off with a sharp hobby knife or clippers fixes the problem. The only other problem I have is that because they are so expensive comparatively, I waited so long to give them a try. I now regret waiting so long.

## Features

- The World’s Finest Water Color Brush - for artists who appreciate exquisite quality and longevity, there is no other brush than the Winsor & Newton Series 7.
- Point – having a crisp point and maintaining that during use.
- Snap & Spring – the brush snaps back crisply into shape with the right degree of spring to allow the artist superior control with a degree of give and take between the brush and painting surface.
- Flow Control – the color flows evenly and consistently from the point with enough color carry capacity within the belly of the brush to lay down a flowing gestural stoke of colour.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ CRACKED, BROKEN AND BENT ON ARRIVAL
*by Y***N on December 19, 2025*

Only gave it 5 stars so you would see this post. Brush was cracked and bent, even though packed in a tube. I was surprised when I opened the tube because it was so fancy. I am returning this item but also bought another one from same company. We will see how second one comes. I’m disappointed because I work 80 hrs a week and have little time to paint. Was planning on using it this weekend to paint with and now I can’t. See photos.
