The Texture Comb tool can be used in so many ways! The teeth of this comb can be applied to pots on the wheel, to add texture to a slab, or used to score when combining clay.

We feel like the Comb tool is a bit of an unsung hero. Once you have this tool in your studio, we’re sure you’ll find more and more ways to use it. It’s sure to become one of your favorite tools.

Here’s why we are celebrating the unique comb this month:

  1. The teeth. Each tooth on the comb has a sharp point with beveled sides that make them excellent for scraping into clay with clean straight lines.

  2. Great grip. The handle of the comb is designed with an indent on each side for easy holding while you press the tool into your clay - this tool won’t slip from your hands!

  3. Consistency. When you need perfectly spaced lines, this tool is your best friend.

  4. Go wild. While the teeth can provide a straight and even set of lines, you can also use it to create super irregular textures that are great for catching glazes in unique ways. You can also easily use it to make quick scratches that score a large or small area before combining your clay.
