Our clay stamp making process was developed by artist Joel Socwell while studying ceramics at the University of Wisconsin Whitewater.   This special process uses a laser to cut your design into a durable stamp tool.   As a service to the ceramic arts community, Joel now offers this process for transferring your custom design into an easy to use ceramic tool.   Your custom clay stamp tool is ready in about 1 week after you place an order.   With express shipping you can have your stamps in hand in just 3-5 days depending on you location.   The stamps are durable and can make hundreds, even thousands of quality marks, and last for years in most cases.   We have a full selection of stock stamp images, sold exclusively by SOCWELL LLC also available here on www.4clay.com.

Using clay stamps to mark pottery while the clay is soft
Stock stamp being used in marking soft clay.   Our clay stamps are made using a laser to cut detailed and deep designs into the tool.   All our stamps, stock or made from your design, make crisp clear marks clay with good depth to the mark.   You will find these stamps far superior to rubber stamps, these are made specific for the embossing of clay - both PMC jewelery clay and water based clay for wheel or hand building.   With pottery clays I recommend a drying period after working on the wheel to allow the clay to firm before using the stamp to mark the clay.   In my own work on the wheel, I leave the piece lightly covered with plastic overnight and then trim and mark with the stamp tool.   Each studio & clay has different drying times, so it is best to practice with your clay a little before you use stamps on a finished piece.
