I've heard that Rosemary and Co brushes have a good reputation, so three months ago I bought half a dozen of them. They are the type called Ivory in the catalogue. They are made from a synthetic material and are suitable for both oil and acrylic.
I think they are the best brushes I've ever bought !
The bristles are pliable but keep their shape well, and are enjoyable to paint with. They are good for both acrylic and oil.
In comparison, I've been buying hog bristle brushes from well known British manufatcurers and have been disappointed with the poor quality. The main problems are that some bristles wear down very quickly, or else lose their shape and after a few months they look like a scrubbing brush.
Having used these new brushes for a while, I'm sure that they will last a long time. And my pictures look better because I've got more control over the bristles
