Know before you buy
Yes, the melamine or birch top is designed to provide a stable, flat surface suitable for watercolor painting. However, as with any wood-based furniture, we recommend using a waterproof mat or board if you plan on using heavy water washes to protect the finish over time.
The SMI Watercolor Art Station arrives as a substantial piece of furniture. While some minor assembly may be required, most of the structural components are pre-constructed to ensure stability and durability.
The station features six drawers of varying sizes designed to accommodate a wide range of art supplies. While they are excellent for paints, brushes, and palettes, you should verify your specific paper dimensions against the drawer measurements if you intend to store large-format sheets flat.
The station is equipped with castors for easy mobility, allowing you to reposition it as your lighting or workspace needs change. Two of the castors lock firmly to ensure the table remains stationary while you are painting.
While the four-coat lacquer finish provides excellent protection, this unit is intended for indoor use only. Prolonged exposure to direct, intense sunlight or fluctuating humidity levels near windows can potentially affect the wood veneer over time.
The four coats of lacquer make the surface easy to wipe clean with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can dull the finish and compromise the protective seal.
