Different Profiles for Different Marks
The shape of a wood modeling tool determines how it contacts and moves through the clay. Kemper's assortment of profiles gives artists different edges, curves, and contours for shaping forms, smoothing surfaces, cutting material, and creating decorative marks.
Rather than requiring an entirely different kind of tool for every technique, these versatile hardwood tools can perform numerous basic modeling tasks depending on which portion of the profile is used.
A Pottery Studio Staple
Wood modeling tools are wonderfully uncomplicated: no moving parts, interchangeable pieces, or tiny accessories destined to vanish into another dimension underneath the studio table. Their shaped hardwood profiles provide direct control over soft clay, making them useful for beginners, classrooms, and experienced ceramic artists alike.
