Enjoy perfect stability whether you're working seated or standing. This Lyptus hardwood H-frame easel features a laminated quad base, with a slide and lock height adjustment system. Assembly required. Lyptus premium hardwood is grown on well-managed plantations in South America, making it the eco-friendly choice for the global consumer. Lyptus wood is from hybrid eucalyptus trees, which mature in 14-16 years (other hardwoods take up to 60 years). Lyptus trees sprout from the stump of previously harvested trees, so the forest is always renewing itself! The wood is harder than oak, enabling easels made of Lyptus to withstand the wear and tear of everyday use.
