Excellent 8: New Texture!

softer edges for smoother throwing

We are so excited to release the newest addition to our collection of pottery tools. Meet Texture 8!

About a month ago we stared playing with the idea of softening the corners of our Texture 2 tool and creating a new texture that allows for subtle yet still crisp curves and forms.

We weren’t sure if this tool was a necessary edition to our collection, so we headed to Instagram to ask our trusty ceramic community what they thought. Were we too in the weeds? Is it an excellent idea? Here’s what some of you said that made us decided to release this texture as a whole new tool in our lineup:

I have the original but would love one with softer edges!

I like the softer edge a lot! It gives a crisp yet smooth curve!
— Instagram Fan @artworksbymaelle
Why not make booffumm?
— Instagram Fan @brad.m.hagerman

Now, you can get your hands on the new Texture 8 and the original Texture 2 to figure out which tool you prefer to have at your wheel!
