The Royal Brush Artist Chamois is a versatile studio tool for blending, softening, lifting, and smoothing across a variety of art media. Made from natural chamois, its soft, pliable, and absorbent surface makes it particularly useful for charcoal, pastel, watercolor, and ceramics.
For drawing, use the chamois to gently blend charcoal and soft pastel, soften transitions, and manipulate broad areas of tone without the hard edges created by smaller blending tools. Its absorbency also makes it useful for lifting moisture and creating effects in watercolor.
Ceramic artists can use the soft chamois to smooth and refine clay surfaces, making this simple 5" × 7" cloth a surprisingly useful addition to both drawing and pottery tool kits.

Blend Broad Areas Naturally
Unlike a blending stump or tortillon, a chamois provides a larger, flexible surface for manipulating broad passages of charcoal and pastel. Fold, bunch, or wrap it around a finger to vary the amount of contact and control while blending.
One Tool, Multiple Media
The absorbent natural material isn't limited to drawing. Watercolorists can use it to manipulate moisture and create effects, while ceramic artists can use its soft surface to smooth and refine clay without introducing harsh marks.
