TART TM47 beechwood display easel, 50 cm

Give a small work a visible place

Stand a photo, card, announcement or small artwork upright on a table or shelf. The TART TM47 is a decorative A-frame easel made from smoothly sanded beechwood treated with linseed oil. You receive one wooden display easel; artwork to display is not included.

Dimensions and suitable work

The easel is 50 cm high and has a 27 cm wide support shelf. Maximum artwork height is 41 cm. The shelf does not adjust in height. Folded dimensions are 50 × 27 × 3 cm, allowing flat storage or transport to a display.

Measure more than the height of your work: consider thickness, width and how it rests on the shelf. Shelf width is not a stated maximum artwork width or load rating. A thin print or card may need a separate rigid backing to stay upright; this is not included. For intensive painting, choose an easel with suitable clamping and adjustment.

Setting up on a table

Place the easel on a level, stable surface and open the rear leg. Its position sets the tilt. Centre the work on the support shelf and gently check stability before releasing it. Leave space around the legs and keep the display out of walkways.

Refine the display

View the arrangement from the visitor’s position. Move the whole easel first to reduce unwanted reflections in a photograph or frame; remove the work before changing the tilt. A short title card beside the work keeps the image clear. This is a practical way to organise a small exhibition or tabletop display.

Folding and care

Remove the work before moving or folding the easel. Keep fingers clear of moving joints and fold the rear leg in gently. Dust the wood with a soft, dry cloth and store it dry. The linseed-oil treatment is not a reason to leave it wet for prolonged periods.
