What kind of paint brush do I have?

Hello all,

I am refinishing an old cherry end table. I am going to top coat with oil based polyurethane. I'd like to use a natural bristle brush over foam. I want to get the best possible finish coat.

Anyway, I have an old paint brush, still in good condition but I can't tell if it is natural bristle or synthetic.

Does anyone one know if there is a way to tell? i.e. - dip it in water..., or... It looks like white China bristles but I can't tell for sure and don't want to mess up my project. Thanks.
