I really appreciate the quality and sturdiness of Schmincke’s metal palettes. The hinges on the box lid, which has 4 spacious mixing wells, and on the folding palette are strong and resist bending or breaking, even with frequent use. The pans fit easily into their slots and stay in place, but can also be easily swapped for other colors. The set also includes a fold-out sheet for sampling selected colors, a very nice touch. The lid closes tightly.
I ordered this box to hold 5 ml tubes, and I’m very happy with it. Sometimes you need to turn the tubes around a little so the caps don’t stick out and press against the mixing surface, making it harder to close, but the box still closes securely. It’s a high-quality, sturdy box with white enamel mixing surfaces. You can also slip an elastic band around the box and tuck in a brush.
As you’d expect from Schmincke, the box is excellent quality and made to last for years. I use it as an extension of my larger watercolor box for a few extra colors, such as some from their new granulating range. I’d also take it on vacation with a selection of colors. I also like the thumb loop on the back, which lets me hold the palette in my hand. A nice product.
I just filled this palette with my favorite colors, and I love it. The lid closes perfectly and tightly, which is very satisfying. An excellent Schmincke watercolor palette with plenty of room to mix colors.
Schmincke Horadam remains the benchmark for serious artists, and this set is a perfect expression of that quality. Using Kordofan gum arabic as a binder ensures a consistent, professional flow and pigment concentration that delivers incredible color strength. The paints rewet instantly on the palette without becoming chalky, keeping the consistency and vibrancy of fresh-from-the-tube paint. The pigments’ transparency allows for sophisticated layering and bright washes without losing clarity. The dispersion is incredibly even, allowing for smooth transitions even with demanding wet-on-wet techniques. The wooden box is a practical asset, providing lasting archival storage for the tubes and protecting the pigments from light and temperature fluctuations. If you need predictable, high-performance watercolors with world-class lightfastness, this set is a definitive investment in your practice.
