Volcanic Rock Clay Texture Roller

An irregular, pitted stone surface, similar to porous volcanic rock. It looks especially natural on planters and rustic mugs.

Medium-soft clay works well here. Because the rock texture is irregular and pitted, it also forgives a slightly firmer slab, but very wet clay will slump and soften the rough edges.

Dust the clay with cornstarch or use a light mist of water on the roller. Pits in a stone texture hold onto clay, so a quick brush-out after each slab keeps the surface rough and natural.

Yes. Roll the stone surface on the flat slab, let it firm up a little, then form it into a planter or tray with the texture facing out. Join seams on the plain side so the rock look stays unbroken.

A matte or breaking glaze settles into the pits and leaves the ridges lighter, which looks like real stone. Try a smooth glossy interior against the rough outside for contrast.
