Our take on the Blick Noir French Easel by Jullian

The Jullian Blick Noir is a folding French easel in varnished pine, made for painters who work both in the studio and outdoors. It opens to a tripod stand that holds canvases up to 34 inches high and reaches 57 inches tall, then folds to roughly 43.5 by 17 cm at about 4 kg with a built-in palette, tray and carrying bag. It is rated 4.2 out of 5 from 60 ratings. No current store price was provided, so check the price history before buying.

Questions and answers

Is the Jullian Blick Noir worth it for a beginner?
Yes, if you want one easel for home and outdoor work. The built-in palette, tray and bag cover most starter needs, though a cheaper aluminum tripod suits studio-only use.
How big a canvas can it hold?
It supports canvases up to 34 inches high and extends to 57 inches tall. Larger stretched canvases will need a studio easel.
Does it come with a carrying bag?
Yes, a carrying bag is included, along with the integrated palette and tray. The easel folds to about 43.5 by 17 cm.
Is it good for watercolor?
It can be used for watercolor, but the tray is flat rather than a deep well. Many watercolorists add a separate board or box.
How does it compare with a Jullian full French easel?
This is a lighter, simpler sketch-style French easel. Full-size Jullian French easels offer more storage and a larger palette but weigh more.
When is the best time to buy it?
Art supply sales around back-to-school and the winter holidays tend to bring the lowest prices. Check the price history before buying.
