Mahlstick (also known as mahl stick or maulstick)

A good quality traditional tool which was developed as a rest to support the arm when oil painting.

This Mahlstick consists of a metal rod which screws together in the middle to make a 90cm mahlstick, with a faux leather padded head to rest on the painting.

A well made mahlstick as good as traditional wood type. - Mahlstick

Great for using on large 5ft canvasses as well as small ones. Reasonably priced. Leam Soong Chang (Ayer Itam, Malaysia) on 18 Apr 2018

A useful item if, like me, you paint oils upright and usually standing up. - Mahlstick

Certainly helps steady the hands considerably.
