Besides the traditional china painting brushes in natural quills, also the below-listed models are used for related techniques, as the so-called “soft look” or “American technique”.
A detailed survey of classical painting, but also of modern techniques is to be found in the book “Porzellan bemalen heute”, written by Brandehof/Geißler and edited by the Callwey-Verlag, Munich.
