…Or is it the death of a brush. After many years of durable, reliable service, Heinz-Jordan has pulled the sheet over its gold sable line of decorative painting brushes. DOA. Min you the matte mauve colored handle always did portend itself to something of a color story and narrative more in proximity with a funeral parlor and casket shop, mortuary clean-up and make-up center than the semi-less-than-glamorous world of decorative painting; but it is still a surprise…
the brushes were at Loew-Cornell quality at a discount, rarely a return and painters were happy with them. Sad, but unless the Rembrandt’s in waiting are noodling around with finger painting, there are less decorative artists out there and companies are pulling the plug on intravenous support for the moribund. So it goes. We still have a decent stock, and they are at 50% off retail while supplies last.
