Sazanka — 山茶花, Camellia sasanqua, the winter-blooming flower — is a small brush made for writing letters, blending weasel, deer, and wool hair by
Chiyomi Tanaka, one of only seven certified brush artisans working in Nara today and the only woman among them to be profiled by
The New York Times Style Magazine.
Slightly firm and easy to control, it moves across the page the way its namesake blossom holds its shape against the cold — a modest, dependable brush for the quiet act of putting words to paper.Size
