Artist Floor Easel For Sale on 1stDibs

Choose from an assortment of styles, material and more with respect to the artist floor easel you’re looking for at 1stDibs. An artist floor easel — often made from wood, metal and oak — can elevate any home. There are many kinds of the artist floor easel you’re looking for, from those produced as long ago as the 19th Century to those made as recently as the 20th Century. When you’re browsing for the right artist floor easel, those designed in Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau styles are of considerable interest.

Finding the Right Easels for You

While antique and vintage easels are traditionally seen as an artist’s tool, they also have decorative uses beyond their basic function.

Easels are tall supports that painters use to prop their canvas on while they work. While many wooden easels have been made over the years, versions made with alternative materials such as aluminum, steel and other metals can be found too.

There are various types of easels. Studio easels differ from table easels in that the latter is meant for tabletop use. An H-frame easel is said to be the sturdiest variety and has the largest footprint. You will likely need a dedicated space in your home for this studio easel as it isn’t meant to be portable and can’t be broken down easily. Another studio easel, an A-frame easel, has a triangular “A” structure versus the “H” form we see in H-easels. The A-frame easel is lightweight and may be a bit more affordable than an H-frame easel.

Beyond an artist using an easel to create the next masterpiece, an easel can help you incorporate art into a living room that doesn’t have sufficient wall space for a painting. There are lots of ways to arrange wall art, and hanging isn’t the only way to display your artworks. You can stand framed pieces and stretched canvases on an easel, a mantelpiece, floating shelves or on the floor leaning against a wall. This creates a casual look and also allows you to change your arrangement more easily without damaging the wall. An understated easel can fade into the background, serving as an unassuming platform that allows a work to speak for itself. Conversely, many ornate and sculptural examples of easels have been made over the years. What better way to draw an eye toward a work of art in your home?

Find a collection of antique and vintage easels on 1stDibs that includes mid-century modern easels, industrial-style easels and more.

Questions About Artist Floor Easel
  • 1stDibs ExpertJanuary 27, 2025
    Jackson Pollock is the American artist famous for laying the canvas on the floor and dripping the paint from a bucket using a stick. He called this innovative technique "drip painting." Pollock stood at the forefront of Abstract Expressionism to the point that his name has become nearly synonymous with the movement. He was deeply respected by his contemporaries, and Pollock’s paintings, prints and other art — as well as his commitment to the work — influenced artists worldwide. Explore a collection of Jackson Pollock art on 1stDibs.
