A small ingenious compact hotplate with immense creative potential. This compact hotplate is heated by clamping the Painting Iron body (that is sold separately) underneath the beautiful clean anodised aluminium plate. It is simple to fit together and the iron powers the heat requirement perfectly. Work directly on the surface with a card or lightweight board. Use the convenient heated platform as a palette for melting and mixing colours when brush painting with wax. Swipe card through molten wax colours. This compact hotplate is a brilliant addition to your encaustic art tool collection!

It is suitable for all direct surface work and as an excellent mixing palette and for flat bottomed metal tin palettes

Encaustic art is the art of painting in pigmented molten beeswax, using heated tools.
