The tips of the bristles are shortened so that you can feel the stiffness.

Nagi Series

Houkodou released the Nagi Series to commemorate the launch of the Reiwa Era in Japan. Blue is a rare color for makeup brush handles - this series was created with the image of the sea in mind, as Nagi means 'calm' in Japanese. 

Houkodou

Houkodou celebrated its 120th anniversary in 2020, making the company one of the oldest and most respected Fude producers in Japan. Attention to detail and quality control is at the heart of all their brushes, with no compromise for perfection. Every brush is made by hand using traditional Kumano techniques such as sorting and hand-bundling bristles, and leaving bristle tips uncut for a soft touch and good product pickup.
