How much is a better brush?

How much is a brush? This will vary from person to person, generally 30- 100 yuan, mid-range 200-500 yuan. Above 500 yuan, decorations such as pen holders and mirror boxes are more expensive and have a wide variety.

From the material point of view, Langhao's raw material price is higher than that of Yang Hao, especially Langhao from Wei Bei, which is produced in the northeast, with a small quantity and high price.

You can't use any pen below 50 yuan, especially the cursive script of two kings and one road. Without the right tools, it is basically torture.

So I suggest you buy 100-200 yuan.

How can I buy a good one? This depends on personal experience. Let's talk about it in detail:

Brush, as a national treasure, is the most important writing tool in China's thousands of years of civilization history. As a native of China, you may write with a brush, but do you really understand the brush in your hand? If you want to do a good job, you must sharpen your knife first, so you must know how to choose the right brush.

First, how to choose a writing brush

Brushing is really important, just like meeting your girlfriend for the first time. It feels good that you will have a lifelong marriage with calligraphy. If you feel bad, you may pass by.

Most people go to the store to buy brushes or buy them online. My experience and analysis-"sharp, round and neat" (sharp: when the pen is polymerized, the nib should be able to close. Qi: Squeeze the nib with water to make the hair of the nib neat and tidy. Round: Around the belly of the pen, the pen holder is full and round, conical, not flat or thin. Health: the bristles are elastic, easy to fold after spreading, and the brushwork should be healthy. For details, see Four Virtues of Brush-Sharp Circle (with Brush Structure and Diagram). The so-called four virtues cannot be verified before paying the money, and the visual inspection is simply invalid. There is only one way, not to buy cheap goods. It's best not to buy it in the store. First, because many bosses don't know the goods themselves, they buy brushes frequently. Secondly, it is normal to increase the price by three to five times in the store, and online shopping is worth choosing.

A good online shop selling pens should introduce the brush in detail, including the texture of the pen tip, the texture of the pen holder, the length of the pen, the suitability of use and so on. A better online shop should have a pen-tested drawing.

Second, how to distinguish a good pen from a bad pen?

The pen holder should not be thick or thin, and 0.7- 1 cm is the most suitable. Never choose a nice pen. It's heavy, and it seems expensive. Writing is to use hair instead of a pen. It seems that expensive penholders are often made by bad calligraphers, because without good hair quality and good craftsmanship, we can only work hard on penholders. Buy high-grade brushes as gifts.

Pick up the pen, start the pen, and try it (see the detailed drawing of the new brush below for the method of opening the pen, or follow me, and then reply to "open the pen", and there will be detailed drawings and videos of opening the pen). The characteristic of a good pen is "sharp and round", that is, hard but not hard, soft but not soft.

Of course, it is very difficult and costly to choose a brush that is very suitable for your hand. The best way is to find a painter who makes a brush.

Finally, the quality of a writing brush is very different. This feeling is a bit unclear. First of all, do you prefer to use guns or sticks? Do you want to kill people or blame them? Secondly, it is only a turning point in the quality of this weapon. With the improvement of calligraphy level and sensibility, you can better understand the quality of this weapon and write handy good words. On the other hand, due to the improvement of your level, you will write good words with a bad brush.

My suggestion is, at the beginning, choose an ordinary double brush and never buy cheap goods; Then, choose a good brush that suits your personality.
