Collection: Varnish and Gesso Brushes (5 products)

What do woodworkers, acrylics, gesso, and oil painters use that they may all have in common? Not just the tools or paint itself, but surprisingly, varnish. Although the varnish an artist uses on acrylic and oil is generally a different formula, the varnish acts in the same manner: to bring out the color, details and preserve and protect the object it is coating.

When it comes to the best brush for varnish or gesso, you've found the right place! On this page, you'll find today's top-tier varnish and gesso brushes at reasonable prices in a wide variety of sizes for any project. We have the highly-trusted Escoda Natural Chungking Bristle varnish and gesso brushes that can assist you in covering large areas with gesso, varnish, glazing, and other similar applications. The Escoda Natural Chungking Bristle brushes use a European sizing system, which runs smaller than the English system, so make sure you reference measurements to find the exact brush you want to meet your needs!

Our Natural Bristle Chip Brust sets might be what you are looking for for an economical yet equally excellent choice! A natural hog hair varnish brush is also great for glazing, gesso, and encaustics. Encaustic is a Greek word meaning \"to heat or burn-in,\" Encaustics consist of natural beeswax and dammar resin. Heat is used to melt and fuse beeswax and varnish into a single layer.

Of course, we also provide the legendary and iconic Princeton brand and their Series 5450F Gesso Brushes at a shockingly low price. These brushes were fashioned from double-thick, unbleached natural bristles to provide strength and resilience to move heavy mixes of paint and more.
