You may be asking yourself… what do I want with a used paint brush… or someone looking over your shoulder may be asking you that. If you find yourself in this quandary as to why you are inexplicably drawn to this object .. let me tell you a bit more about the brushes that appear in Uniques. These vintage brushes tell a wonderful story of creativity and labor … when tools were precious and not disposable, when their components included horsehair and metal and wood and topped with a painted handle. What do you do with them? They are great on a shelf of books.. standing up on their bristles or set sideways on their handles. They work as a paper weight on an industrial desk.. or as part of a cluster of vintage brushes on the shelf in an office of a creative… or in lieu of a painting, hanging on a cottage wall. It measures 12” from handle tip to brush end and 6” across the head of the brush.
