Description
What is Sokoho Yomo?
It is hair from around the neck and chest area of young goats, which has been subjected to little wear and tear. The hair is sufficiently long, and is the highest-quality among all goat hair. Its characteristics are the perfect balance of firmness and softness, and, in particular, the roots are thick and have resilience.
The highest-quality hair for brushes, known as "Koyomo", is hair that has been taken from goats living in the Yangtze region of China, in the 1970s or before, and is precious due to its rarity. Brushes using "Koyomo" confirmed as being from this period, are coated in cuticles up to the hair tip, and have delicate tips, which means that they feel smooth on the skin and have no friction. The brushes also last a long time, becoming more adapted the more they are used, and as make-up brushes they are unparalleled.
The glossy, bright-colored lacquerware goes though processes such as undercoating, second coating, and final coating, and is made with multiple layers of Japanese lacquer coating. Meawhile, the wooden base is coated with transparent lacquer and wiped with cloth several times, this process, called Fuki-urushi, is done to bring out the grain of the wooden material. The beautiful gloss, and the transparent wooden grain make for a stunning piece of lacquerware.
It comes with a presentation box.
*Because this product is made with natural wood, wood grain may be visible on the handle. Thin lines may also be visible; these are a result of the product being manufactured with lacquer. Such variations may be expected with natural materials.
This powder brush has a plush large head for sheer application and smooth, high definition results. It distributes loose powder, bronzer, illuminator and setting powder perfectly, to create a flawless finish. Also ideal dusting of makeup or for mineral foundations.
Softness (degree 1-10): 7
Usage: Powder, Foundation, Bronzer

Description in Japanese
古羊毛 雪月花 花シリーズ 会津拭漆さくら フェイスブラシ
粗光峰羊毛（そこうほうようもう） とは：仔山羊の首から胸まわりの摩耗の少ない毛で、毛の長さもしっかりとあり、山羊の毛の中でも最も高級な部分です。毛の特徴として、適度なこしと柔らかさがあり、特に根元部分が太く弾力があります。会津塗の伝統技法の「玉虫塗り」。会津塗り：会津塗の伝統技法のひとつで、戦後はヨーロッパへの輸出が盛んでした。漆器本来の本堅地下地をほどこした後に、全面に銀粉を蒔き、紅の色をつけた玉虫漆にて塗り上げます。艶を調整し、より硝子質に見えるよう調合することで、下から輝く純銀が底艶を上げます。最高級の筆毛「古羊毛」とは、中国の楊子江に棲息する山羊の、特に1980年代以前に採取された希少価値の高い山羊の毛です。この年代を特定した「古羊毛」の筆は、毛先までキューティクルで覆われており、毛先がとても繊細なため、肌あたりがとても滑らかで柔らかく摩擦がありません。筆としての寿命も長く、使い込むほどに馴染んでいき、類を見ないほどの優れた化粧筆です。淡い白色の古羊毛と、軸の艶やかな潤いある奥深い紅色のコントラストが、非常に綺麗です。
