    BEST Easels

    Every artist should know the joy of using exquisite equipment. BEST easels are known as some of the finest easels in the world. Each BEST easel is hand-made from North American Red Oak, sanded to a smooth surface, then hand-rubbed with oil to reveal the inherent beauty of the wood grain. There is no compromise in workmanship or quality. The craftsmen at BEST nail, glue and screw every joint, guaranteeing strength and precision. Designed and manufactured with the professional in mind, BEST easels are amazingly stable, completely functional and truly beautiful.

    Built of solid oak, the Deluxe Lobo quad base easel is perfect for the mixed media painter. It is inexpensive, compact but sturdy, reliable, and very flexible.
