Happy New Year!
We are excited to bring in the new year with a new product, Townsend Atelier Modeling Clay.

Our new clay is a plastilina oil-based clay that is non-drying, non-hardening, and contains no sulfur. Easy to work with, our modeling clay keeps its smooth, firm consistency, retains its shape and stays pliable at room temperature. Townsend Modeling Clay never hardens and can be re-used and re-worked. To use, knead in hands until soft and pliable.
