Maintenance Recommendations
Wash by hand with water removing all clay or mud, dry with a towel and let air dry.
Do not leave your tools submerged in water or soaked.
When you use the tool on the lathe, you can submerge it in the basin water to clean it but then leave it outside, do not leave it floating.
Do not use chemicals or abrasives.
Do not leave your very wet tools to dry lying on the table or on the plasterboard; it is important to dry them after washing them with the cloth and leave them hanging from the hole or standing upright on their base, but always let air circulate around them so that the wood can expel any remaining water naturally.
Apply mineral oil and beeswax ointment or some other special wood oil occasionally.
For occasional maintenance you can use very fine 240 sandpaper and special natural ointments or oils for wood, allowing the product to dry 24 hours before use.
If at any time you notice that the wood is rougher than you like after the first use or at later times, you can gently sand the surface with fine 240 sandpaper and reapply protection for a smoother finish to the touch. This aspect does not affect the correct operation of the tool.
The final product may have slight variations in color and wood grain due to the use of a natural raw material.
SAFETY WARNING
Handle with care: Some tools have pointed ends. While they are not sharpened, they can cause skin injury if used or handled improperly.
Professional use: Keep out of reach of children. Use only for pottery purposes.
The perfect balance of curve and command: meet the C1-M.
The C1-M is the versatile medium-sized version of our classic kidney tool, made for potters who need more surface area than a small tool but more agility than our large models. I designed this Herramienta with a two-hole grip system to ensure the best stability when pressing hard, making it a basic instrument for pulling walls, fixing the middle of a pot, and smoothing the surface of medium bowls and vases.
Hand-crafted in my workshop from our characteristic wood, the C1-M offers a warm feel that plastic tools cannot copy. Its natural, flowing edges are hand-sanded to a professional finish, allowing the wood to move easily over wet clay. This tool is the backbone of the studio, bridging the gap between small details and building the main shape.
Why is the C1-M so useful?
Two-hole design Designed for a secure, non-slip grip that allows you to spread pressure evenly across the whole tool.
Versatile medium shape The ideal shape for creating the natural curves of medium-sized daily pots.
Strong wood Made from durable wood that works well with water and keeps its shape and edge even with daily use.
Artisan smooth finish Every tool is personally hand-finished to ensure a professional move over the clay without dragging
Simple and intuitive It is so easy to use that it often becomes the tool you never put down, making your work feel much more natural.
