A large, height-adjustable artist’s studio easel, likely French and dating from the late 19th to early 20th century. Crafted from solid mahogany, it features a classic H-frame construction set on a sturdy trestle base fitted with four casters for easy movement around the studio. The easel is operated by raising the central frame and securing it at the desired height using a pair of metal support rods, allowing it to accommodate canvases of various sizes with ease. It is a practical and well-made piece of traditional studio equipment, ideal for painting or drawing, and equally effective as a striking display stand to display a favourite artwork.
