The Caran d’Ache Palette Aquarelle (Ref. 117.103) is a durable, travel-ready white plexiglass mixing palette designed to help you get the most from water-soluble artist media. Specially developed for lifting and activating dry pigments, it’s ideal for turning watercolour pencils and watersoluble pastels into rich, paint-like washes—perfect for sketching, studio work, and art classes.
With a handy nomad size (26 × 13 cm) and a rigid 3 mm thickness, this palette is comfortable to hold and easy to clean. It features two working surfaces to match different techniques:
-
Rough face: grips dry pigment so you can build concentrated washes and controlled blends (excellent for watercolour mixing)
-
Smooth face: suits a wide range of paints and mediums, including gouache, acrylic, oil, and watercolour
Built for repeated use, the Palette Aquarelle is resistant to alcohol, acetone, UV exposure, and scrubbing, and cleans easily with water—making it a reliable everyday accessory for professional artists, students, and hobbyists alike. It pairs beautifully with water-soluble ranges such as Caran d’Ache Museum Aquarelle, Technalo, Supracolor Soft Aquarelle, Prismalo Aquarelle, and Neocolor II.
