11 Dark Blue Kolinsky French Nail Brush

Technical Specifications

Design and Construction

The Kolinsky Germany French Brush is a professionally sized nail brush designed for French manicure and detailed nail art. The brush features a size 12 head, which is a standard dimension widely used by nail technicians. The overall construction consists of three primary components: the Kolinsky hair bristles, a metal ferrule, and a patterned handle.

Hair Material

The bristles are made from 100% Kolinsky sable hair, which is processed in Germany. Kolinsky hair is known for its natural taper, becoming finer from base to tip. The hair is arranged in an even shape across the brush head, meaning all tips are aligned to the same level. This even alignment creates a uniform working edge. The German processing includes cleaning, sorting, and conditioning the hair to preserve its natural properties.

Ferrule

The ferrule is the metal band that connects the hair to the handle. It is made from brass with a nickel-plated finish. The ferrule is double-crimped to securely hold the hair in place. The hair is inserted deep into the ferrule and fixed with adhesive to prevent loosening over time.

Handle Design

The handle features a patterned surface with a decorative dotting design. This pattern serves both visual and functional purposes. Visually, it gives the brush a fashionable, classic, and popular appearance. Functionally, the textured pattern provides a comfortable, non-slip grip. The handle is made from polished hardwood and coated with a durable, solvent-resistant varnish. The end of the handle is rounded and smooth.

Tip Shape Options

The brush is available in two tip shapes: oval and round. The oval shape has a flattened profile, while the round shape has a conical profile. Both shapes share the same overall dimensions and are manufactured to the same size standard.

Markings and Identification

The handle is marked with the text "12 Kolinsky Germany," indicating the size, hair type, and country of processing. The ferrule carries a batch code for traceability. No other markings appear on the brush.

Included Accessories

Each brush comes with a removable plastic tip cover to protect the bristles during transport. No other accessories are included in the standard package.

Needle Tip for Rhinestone Placement

The opposite end of the handle features a fine metal needle tip. This needle is designed specifically for picking up and placing small rhinestones, water diamonds, beads, and charms. Simply moisten the needle tip slightly, touch it to the stone, and transfer it directly onto the nail. No separate dotting tool is required.
