University is a range of good quality white polyester artists' brushes with distinctive white tipped red handles.

The smooth polyester fibres make smooth marks compared to hog hair. They are also suitable for a wide variety of craft applications. Their low price makes this brush useful for beginners, students and professionals wanting an inexpensive option.
