Product Description
Dulce Easel - The Best easel company imports this version of their own Classic Dulce from Brazil. It is a very good knock off of their best selling Dulce model. The Academy version is made from a less expensive hardwood and made in Brazil where the labor costs are significantly lower than ours. To keep the cost low the easel is shipped unassembled so plan on doing a little work to set it up. If you are not handy and prefer a solid oak version made in the United States the Classic Dulce is more costly but arrives 90% pre-assembled. Minimum easel height 58 inches maximum height 95 inches. Base measures 21 inch wide by 24 inch deep. Holds canvasses up to 7ft high.

I have used this easel for years in one of my two painting stations. Overall for the money it is a great little easel. It does have it's issues, but with a little help you can take this very inexpensive easel and make it great.The good point is you can turn it into a weighted H easel very easily, by adding two large eye screws under the horizonal H on the frame and attaching them to the back of the canvas tray. You can than add a heavy linewith a barbell weight and have a easel that the canvas tray moves up and down. Otherwise the canvas tray and screw knob of the original design doesn't support large paintings, and falls with the weight.I paint portraits and large canvases so that solved that problem.The other issue is the holder at the top did not hold my canvases and after have a few large paintings fell off I started using those tiny bungies cords to wrap around the center mast and though the support crossbarof my canvas. Another problem solved... you can now easily move it up and down without even need the little canvas holder at the top.I then added four casters mounting a piece of wood to both foot pieces so now i can move my easel anywhere.If you aren't handy and you do large painting you might not be happy with this easel. But on the other hand if you are willing to do some simple modifications you get a much better easel with a more compact sizethat can do it all!All for about $400 to $500.00 less than another easel that can do the same thing. I also use this to take to shows because it is much smaller than my other studio easel.

If this is a knock off of a more costly easel it is an excellent one. Contrary to the description, it came about 85-90% assembled. Basically, two screws for the supports and then you easily attach the upper and lower trays. Also, 4 simple foot protectors screw in the bottom. It took about 15 minutes. It is a sturdy, medium sized H frame easel. And the reddish tones are sweet to look at. Honestly, I like the coloring better than the original oak that costs way more. I have a canvas on it already!
