This brush features a handcrafted handle by Robert Quinn from Tulipwood which is native to tropical South America, especially northeastern Brazil, and also can be found in Colombia, Guyana and Venezuela.  The sapwood of tulipwood ranges in color from creamy to solid yellow. The vivid heartwood is straw-colored to pink-yellow, marked with irregular streaks of yellow, rose, pink and violet. The wood is lustrous, and has a rather fine texture with a grain that can be straight or, more often, irregular.  Tulipwood most often is used decoratively as veneers for inlay and marquetry. It is also very popular among wood turners.
