I bought some Rosemary brushes at Euro from the serie 77 and 78.
They are awesome.
Gonna buy some more of these.

Wow! I have been using W&N Series 7 for years because I did not know of a very good alternative at lower cost. No doubt about the difference in cost here, even after paying seven quid for postage to the US, and with the recommendation of so many of you experienced guys, I think that I'll order a few. If I get enough, I can pretend that the savings justify getting a new figure!

Thank you all from me, too! I'm always looking for tips on finding good brushes.

I picked up some sable brushes last year, but they're made in China, and though the price wasn't too cheap, the quality is, and they're not as good as the others. Some flyaway bristles, don't keep a point too well, and there were some "straggler" bristles, that stuck out too far. I had to do some careful trimming on a couple of them.

Prost!
