Trekell Protégé Plus Brushes

Trekell Protégé Plus Synthetic Kolinsky Artist Brushes - Short Handle for Watercolor, Oil, Acrylic Painting

Protégé Plus brushes are a high-performance evolution of our original Protégé line—engineered for artists who want the true feel of Kolinsky sable, without animal hair. While the original Protégé brushes are stiffer with strong snap, Protégé Plus features a more flexible, responsive filament that behaves much like natural sable.

This advanced synthetic holds a sharp point, retains a full belly, and allows for smooth, fluid strokes. Ideal for watercolor, ink, gouache, and more, Protégé Plus delivers soft control, increased paint capacity, and precision—making it a standout choice for artists who need subtlety and performance in every stroke.
