MEEDEN 8-Well Ceramic Artist Paint Palette, Rectangle Porcelain Watercolor Palette, White Ceramic Mixing Tray for Gouache Painting, Oil Painting, Acrylic Painting & Tempera Painting, 19×19×2.3cm

As well as plastic artists' palettes, I've used old saucers, plastic lids and all sorts over the years as palettes for acrylic hobby paints. This glazed ceramic palette is the best I've used in 40 years, by miles!Weighty so it will never move or tip over. If it looks small, I can tell you that the 8 sections are enough for an evening's painting. They're deep enough for mixing up washes or even soaking decals too.And it's so easy to clean up compared to other materials, especially plastic. Unless the paint is really thinned and dried on, a wipe will scrape it off as a thin rubbery sheet. Even on tough, old paint, hot water and soap with a pot scrubber will clean it perfectly. I've used this palette a couple of hundred times in the year since I bought it, and it still looks new.So if you feel the price is a lot for a palette, this might be the one to change your mind - it performs well, cleans up easily and quickly and lasts longer than anything else I've tried.

Great solid paint palette. Cannot beat the ceramics

Very pleased with this and use a lot

I have used many palettes before, mostly plastic and found the realy difficult to clea,and acrylic paint seems toattach itself to plastic and not want to be removed, whereas ceramic palette such as this one, if the acrylic is fairly thick and left to thoroughly dry, the paint willjust peel off and leave a completely clean surface to use again and again, and I personaly prefer working from a clean palette so for my use this is ideal! Also because it is sell made and has a bit of weight to it, it won”t easily slip around on the surface of wherever it is used, which again can be a pain with light plastic, so I thoroughly recommend this item and think any artist painting with acrylic will benefit from it!!

Nice product, well made, quite heavy and exactly what I was looking for at a reasonable price. After using cheap plastic palettes previously this is a massive improvement and I wish I'd bought one sooner because it doesn't stain, and wipes clean really easily. Knocked off one star because it was very dusty when it arrived and needed a good clean.

Sturdy palette with deep wells and gloss finish so it is easy to clean

For me, it's a good size (7 x7 inches) and weight (1.26 lbs) and very stable. It is by the side of 9 x 12 inch watercolour pad in the photo. The pallette sits by my right hand and doesn't interfere with access to my two water pots and paints. Being white porcelain it makes mixing colours and washes easy and the wells are deep (.75 inches) - no problem cleaning out individual wells with kitchen roll if needed. I think it is excellent value and Meeden has plenty of variety in pallettes to choose from. And they will last for years, perform better than plastic ones and won't negatively impact on the environment

This is a well designed alternative to the usual circular palette. All my life I have used a variety of palettes, but this one ticks all the boxes . Firstly, being ceramic it allows oil and/or acrylic workers to clean the palette totally - no residue or dried paint adhering to it after the cleaning process. I expected some paint to adhere to the corners or inside edges of each section , but they are concave so there are no corners for the paint to hide. A great product, at a reasonable cost!
