Miroballi mirettes are tools fundamental to model and cut all soft materials like clays, plasteline, wax, and hybrid types of clays (Alien Clay, Casteline, Monster Clay etc.).
Miroballi professional mirettes are handmade with steel wire, and are firmly blocked in the aluminum handle, to guarantee professionality, manageability and durability through time. These tools are built to last – all have an aluminum crimped handle that holds the wires in place while providing a light tool easy to handle.
Each double wire end tool provides the artist with the ability to add fine details on faces such as irises, incised design and sgraffito which is popular in painting and ceramics.
Their uniquely shaped cutting ends allow for precise sharp clay modeling. Equally fine for pottery clay, wax, and plastilene.
Choose from a range of shapes and sizes to achieve various desired effects.
