What a wonderful addition to my studio. Great size! Holds lots of colors while offering a great mixing pan. Great value. The lid is a lovely sturdy plastic that fits over the ceramic perfectly! Anticipated very thin or brittle plastic, but it's a great weight! Highly recommend

Ottima tavolozza in ceramica con due grandi spazi dove preparare il colore.

I’ve been using watercolor pans only for months, and decided I wanted to venture into professional quality paints and needed a palette worthy of my beautiful Daniel Smith paints. This thing is HUGE! There is so much space to store your paint, and a phenomenal mixing space. It does not stain, does not bead. I love that it has the few bigger wells for your most-used colors. The brush rest/drain in the corner is amazing too. Makes it so easy to clean when needed. The lid doubles as another mixing space too! The lid is plastic, but it is heavy-duty and sturdy. The bottom of the palette has a rim that’s bigger than the top where the wells are, which makes it super stable. This thing isn’t going to slide around on your table, tip over or anything. It’s beautiful and absolutely perfect. I’d give it 10 stars if I could!

I love it. I am a Gouache artist who uses very liquid paint. This is my second Meeden palette because I loved the first one so much. Very smooth, very well made, good weight and easy to clean. 10/10 would buy Meeden again. In fact, I would buy another one right now if I had the money!

I bought myself a birthday gift and it's this studio palette! I have been researching palettes for a while trying to find the right one at the right price. This one is a great size, not too heavy with room for plenty of paint. It has two separate mixing areas, right now I'm using one for warm mixes and one for cool. The mixing areas are smooth for adding water or combining colors for washes, plus they clean easily and do not stain. The wells have a nice slant for pulling small amounts paint forward for mixing. And, it was a really great price compared to others of the same type! Very important in my decision. I have several plastic palettes and I can never get them clean from stains plus, paint usually beads up and puddles, requiring constant mixing, despite my using a light scrubbie to texture the surface to stop the beading. The manufacturer has put a lot of thought into the design of this palette with the artist in mind.

I really like this palette! It came in nice and good packaging, pretty well protected. There's a lot of mixing space, I use it for gouache a lot and I plan on filling the wells with some watercolor soon. I'm really happy with this purchase and might even buy another at some point, in case I accidentally break this one or a pet knocks it over.PROS:It's super sturdy and heavy, it won't slide around when you use it. I've seen reviews for the more expensive palettes like this that don't have an even bottom so it would wobble, but this is completely flat on the bottom.It's white is nice for mixing colors on, it doesn't look pure white but it's still nice for mixing watercolor/gouache accurately.Water puddles and doesn't bead, like it should on porcelain palettes. Makes mixing colors even nicer and even helps with telling how opaque my gouache mixture would be.There's a lot of area for mixing. If you make super large watercolor/gouache paintings, it may not be enough but it should be able to accommodate enough mixing space for even larger painting mixing.The wells can hold a lot of color. Of course I don't think you should fill them completely, but you could definitely fit a full pan or two worth of watercolor in them.CONS:This isn't exactly a con, but I think some people would see it as one. I wouldn't say this is a travel palette, at least not for plein air. I think MEEDEN's smaller palettes would be better options for traveling if you want a porcelain mixing space.It doesn't come with a lid. Now I use a plastic cutting board that's yellow as a cover so hair/dust/etc doesn't fall into the paint when I'm not using this. It's really a must in my opinion to cover it when not in use to cover your open palettes so that mold and other corrupting particles don't get in the paint. If you're curious, I'm using a $1 cutting board that came from a pack from either the grocery store or dollar store. It's a standard size and is slightly larger than the palette. Please use a NEW plastic cutting board and not a used one so good doesn't contaminate the paints either.
