Protégé Plus - Synthetic Kolinsky

The Protégé Plus line is made from a sustainable synthetic material designed to retain the positive characteristics of kolinsky sable-hair, a classic brush filament known for its retention and performance properties, without the common annoyances such as shedding and bending. Like our natural rounds, these brushes are adaptable, laying down washes, fills, and lines.

Protégé Plus is the future. Like its predecessor, Trekell’s newest line takes a big step forward, offering demanding artists the most realistic synthetic filament on the market. While these brushes are shaped like classic kolinsky brushes, they are no imitation. Where the Protégé Plus differs is in its peerless ability to absorb and release liquids. But, it’s the performance that really wows. A Protégé Plus is soft and flexible, just like real hair, ably executing intricate lines and delicate layers of washes again and again. And you can rest assured that there will be an again. This filament has demonstrated its durability in extensive stroke tests, avoiding the pitfalls that make natural hairs a hassle. In that way, you could say a Protégé Plus isn’t just an alternative to kolinsky sable-hair, but an improvement.
