Kuretake ZIG CLEAN COLOR Real Brush 36 Colors set

From the brand Kuretake, the origins of the company are rooted in sumi, the Japanese calligraphy ink. The Kuretake brand represents the arts and crafts lifestyle, with the use of color and shapes. The colors 'Black' represents Tradition, while 'Yellow and Purple' represent Innovation in the development of brushes, pens, and paints to support our customers' artistic lifestyles. The shapes of circle, square, and triangle represent the creation of arts and crafts. 'ZIG' is the brand name for Kuretake's pen and marker, which has been loved by many people.

In the 1970s, during the post-war recession in Japan, people sought out low-priced yet high-quality stationery productions, and in this era, the new 'Kuretake ZIG' Fine liner pen was born. ZIG comes from the word 'zigzag', a concept based on the fluid, back-and-forth motion that comes with writing. Kuretake Co., Ltd. was established in 1902 in Nara, Japan, and since then, by combining our Sumi Ink (Japanese Calligraphy Ink) with our own technological developments, we have achieved recognition as a manufacturer of high-quality stationery products. With confidence that we could utilize our unique knowledge of multi-colored pigment inks, we decided to expand into the Art & Crafts industry.

The ZIG Clean Color Real Brush is a brush-type watercolor pen, which can be used in a wide range of applications such as illustration, design, lettering, and Manga. Because it is a water-based dye ink, you can blur it with water or mix it with other real brush colors or blender. The pens are not individually shrink-wrapped.

When using the ZIG Clean Color Real Brush, you can hold the pen upright to draw a fine line or hold it at an angle to color wider areas. When combined with a water brush, you can easily express blurring. You can also wet the tip of the pen slightly with water to produce multiple gradations of one color.

Multiple colors can be combined to create gradations. First, start by applying a darker color, and before it dries, add another color over it to create a color gradation. It is ideal for watercolor, fine art, modern calligraphy, crafts, Journaling, card making, and scrapbooking. In addition, you can apply a darker-colored ink directly to the tip of a light-colored pen to create a gradation when drawing with the lighter color.

The ZIG Clean Color Real Brush is Xylene-free, conforms to ASTM D 4236, ACMI-certified for safety, and registered with the AP mark for sale in the United States. The flexible brush tip makes it easy to create both narrow and wide lines, making it a high-quality watercolor brush pen. Kuretake has been developing brush pen technology since 1973, and the ZIG Clean Color Real Brush is a testament to their expertise and innovation in the field.
