1. they are not brushes

2. they are unlikely to be Chinese

3. they are also unlikely to be antique.

They are most probably all Japanese, and are used in the flower arranging - the pins allow a stalk to be held in a wide range of positions.

These flower pinholders in Japanese are called
"Kenzan" 剣山、however, your ones seem to be Korean made (Hangul letters on the 1st pic.)

With regards,
