[miriam]

ditto on the Pike for $20 it saved me money because I lightly mist my Holbein paints and they are ready to go

Also had it for 26 years!

I have had my Pike palette for almost 20 years, have recommended them for my students too, and have never had a broken one, and still use it.  Great product.
