Effortless colour mixing, with large central mixing area
A wide central well provides a flat blending surface while ten surrounding wells keep individual pigments separated, reducing accidental contamination. Symmetrical layout places pigments and mixed tones within easy reach during a session.
Ample central space allows mixing larger batches of colour for glazing or broad washes, while separate wells keep mixed and pure pigments distinct for controlled layering.
Organised palette management, with ten pigment wells
Ten pigment storage areas are arranged symmetrically around the centre, so each colour has a dedicated well for staging and mixing. The layout helps maintain consistent tones across a painting by keeping mixtures organised.
Quick identification and separation of colours speeds workflow, useful when working on studies, portraits or multi-layered landscapes.
Portable comfort, with a lightweight 17 cm round tray
