  • Enamel Butcher Tray Palettes 07/22/09 NZD $18.00 - $27.00

    These porcelain enameled metal trays have a convex center so water runs to the edges, making them the perfect palettes for dry brush techniques in watercolor or gouache. The smooth surface makes it easy to clean acrylic paint, as it peels up like a skin even after the paint has dried. Modeled after the original American butcher trays, this palette never stains and can last a lifetime. The inherent small rim chips will not affect performance.
