Best Dulce Easels

They are simple, functional, and beautiful. Each one is constructed of hand-rubbed, oil-finished, solid red oak. That's why Best's Dulce Easels are among the most popular easels we've ever carried. Dulce Easels are moderately priced, yet elegant studio easels for the serious painter. Their H-Frame construction and laminated quad base allow them to support larger works. Adjust them to a variety of settings for sitting and standing. The rubber, non-skid feet can be fitted with locking casters as an option. The base folds flat against the frame for easy storage and transport. Note — Minor assembly is required. Set of 4 casters (2 regular and 2 lockable), makes it easier to move an easel around within the studio, even while it is in use.
