Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I needed a large amount of air dry clay and quickly for my Visual Thinking class. Most air-dry artist's clays are extremely expensive and sold in small amounts. I found this on amazon and threw caution to the wind and ordered it hoping it would be good enough for class. For the sake of this review, I will compare this to the air-dry clay Stonex.
This clay takes a little longer to dry, but dries MUCH harder than Stonex (I made a clay ball with the Crayola brand and when it dried I threw it at the door -which I don't recommend anyone else do- and the door now has a dent, the ball unharmed). It also resists flaking and chipping a lot better. I found this much easier to work with than Stonex. Out-of-box, I didn't have to add as much water to get the clay pliable and ready for use. I have not tried it with anything that requires fine details (small details like stems, arms, etc) but will edit this review when I do.
A 25-lb box of this stuff for 20 dollars is a fantastic deal. If you are a teacher wanting to introduce clay sculpting or non-bake ceramics to a class, or a student who needs clay for a class, or even if you just want to try your hand at playing with a water-based clay, I would highly recommend this.
