The Best Caitlin Taboret and Easel combines beauty and functionality in one unique, finely crafted artists' workstation. It features a fully functional easel plus lots of built-in storage in the taboret, all in a relatively small footprint.

This is an excellent choice for the hobbyist or part-time painter — it fits in small home offices, studios, apartments — anyplace where space is tight or where rooms are multi-functional. Opened up, this handsome piece holds everything the artist needs, whether working in pastel, water media, or oils.

Handcrafted of oak in the USA, this unit has the look of an elegant piece of furniture when completely folded up. The double masts can be positioned to any angle and varying heights to accommodate a variety of working conditions. The maximum easel height is 68½", accommodating canvases up to 33" tall.

Other features include:

• a pull-down drawer for extra storage with interior dimensions of 3½" H × 26¾" W × 17½" D
• ample storage space inside the taboret measuring 16" H × 30¼" W × 19¾" D
• a base measuring 30" H × 32" W × 21½" D
• wings that are 64" wide when fully extended
• a pull-out work surface measuring 26" W × 18" D
