This object is a set of two Chinese calligraphy writing brushes.  Chinese calligraphy is the art form of writing Chinese characters.  The art form combines visual art and interpretation of the literary meaning.  The calligraphy was and still is widely practiced in China by millions of Chinese people.  The brushes themselves are a great length for fluid and dynamic strokes.  The brushes are made using natural bristles which retain ink well and come to a fine point when wet.  Wet washes, smoothly blended colors, and dry-brush effects can all be created through the usage of these brushes.
