Versatile Air-Dry Clay for Sculpting, Handbuilding, and Wheel Work
AMACO Air Dry Clay in Terracotta offers a soft, workable texture that’s great for everything from detailed sculpting to wheel throwing. With its rich color and smooth consistency, it’s easy to shape by hand or tool, making it a fantastic choice for artists of all skill levels. This clay dries naturally in the air—no kiln required—and is perfect for use at home, in studios, or in the classroom.
Once fully dry, the clay becomes a strong surface ready for painting, decorating, or sealing with shellac. It can also be fired to cone 04 for a more permanent, ceramic-like finish. Non-toxic and safe for artists of all ages, it’s an ideal medium for creative expression in any setting.
