Polynesian Kapa Cloth Texture Sheet

Rubber polymer clay texture sheet with beautiful Polynesian kapa/tapa cloth embossing details. (When pressed into clay, the pattern will appear to stand out.)

Kapa cloth is a traditional Polynesian textile made from tree bark, known for its intricate patterns and cultural significance. This original artwork was licensed from a local artist on Maui.

Approximate size of the sheet is 7 cm x 10 cm (2.8 in x 3.9 in) 

Seen here with the 3 cm Miranda hexagon outline cutter, 4 cm Boho Lunar Arch outline cutter, 5 cm Curved Teardrop cutter, and a stud cutter from the Tiny Stud Set. 

This pattern is also available as a Silk Screen.

To use: 

- Roll your clay slab out thicker than you'd like it to end up as the process of pressing the texture into it will thin your slab. 

- Optional: Dust your clay with a little bit of corn starch to prevent sticking

- Press or roll clay into the texture sheet OR press or roll the texture sheet into your clay. Both ways work well. It's just a matter of personal preference. 

Handwash texture sheets with warm water, soap, and a gentle scrub brush when necessary. 

All tools are made to order. Processing time is up to 7 days.
