| This easel is excellent for most large work. An artist can work sitting or
standing, with a variety of easily adjusted settings and angles. It features a
double laminated quad base, side frames, and sturdy H-frame construction. An
adjustable extension on the main frame allows added solidity for larger
canvases.
The Lyptus Santa Fe II comes with two canvas holders and a painting tray; the middle canvas holder can be used for smaller works. The self-leveling bottom tray features a melamine paint mixing surface with two large stainless steel canisters. Its marine style winch raises and lowers, easily allowing works weighing up to 200 lbs. The easel also features plastic front locking casters.
The Lyptus Santa Fe II Easel is the studio easel of choice for artists concerned with environmental issues. It’s made of premium grade Lyptus, a hardwood tree grown in South America that matures in only 15 years. Compared to other hardwoods that take 70 to 100 years to mature, Lyptus is a wonderfully renewable resource.
Lyptus is also extremely durable, able to withstand the wear and tear of everyday use. It has a straight grain with a natural appearance close to mahogany.
