Sculpey Air-Dry Clay, Terra-Cotta

Good product, easy to work and clean up

This clay was super nice to work with. Very moldable and a beautiful terracotta colour. Once its dried (which varies in time depending on the thickness) it's reasonably tough and very easy to sand. I love it. Will definitely consider this product again if I ever want clay

This excellent clay has properties that make it perfect for what I needed, but these same properties may not make it for everyone. When dry, it remains somewhat flexible, with the strips being able to bend like a hard rubber eraser. I use the clay to take impressions of small coins and ancient seals for my business, and in this capacity it excels. While the product is still firm, it is not as easily broken as other clays, and does not crumble either. This saves me from having to attempt to make multiple impressions of the same item, as other clays tended to break or crumble when rolled into sheets this thin. This is PERFECT for my purposes, which is using the clay to make detailed impressions of Ancient coins and seals. This requires the clay to be kept in thin strips which are not fragile. When rolled thin, other clays tended to break or crumble very easily, wasting my time, effort, and product .If you have a project where you need to shape the clay into thin strips, this clay will save you a lot of frustration.Also, the clay is EXCELLENT at taking detailed impressions, and is far better at retaining fine detail than other products I have used.In addition, when the clay dries, the finished product is much lighter than normal clay.I would reccomend this clay as a superior clay for most projects. Its properties will save a lot of people from a lot of frustration, unless you have a project where it's flexibility and other properties might prove to be a negative.

I've only just used it, but it's very easy to manipulate and dries as expected.

I got it for myself but I found out that this is not my craft. I donated it to a summer camp and the kids loved it!
