Shimpo Japanese Style Potter's Tools
Shimpo Ceramics introduces traditional Japanese style pottery tools. A variety of pottery tools are carefully selected for your wheel throwing needs. The wooden wheel throwing tool / Gyobera (WCT-C15-1) is ideal for shaping the wall and compressing the bottom of a wheel thrown piece. Combing tools (WCT-C16-1/2/3) are great for creating textures and patterns. Use Shimpo Japanese-style pottery tools to enhance your throwing skills and explore new possibilities on the potter’s wheel.
