Giotto DAS Air-Dry Modelling Clay, 500 g Block, Mineral-Based, Easy to Roll & Shape, Enhance Creativity, Ideal for Moulding and Other Activity – White

The clay dries to a hard finish in about 24–48 hours, depending on the thickness of the application and the humidity in the environment.

The clay is versatile and can be used on various supports. It works well on paper/card, wood, and simple armatures, and it tends to stick to many common surfaces without requiring a kiln.

Knead the block to soften, then roll and shape as desired. Use water to smooth surfaces during shaping. After it dries (24–48 hours), paint with acrylic or tempera. A varnish can be applied to seal and add sheen.

The clay is water-based, so tools and hands can be cleaned with water during and after use. Store unused clay sealed to prevent it from drying out and wasting material.

Yes, it is designed for school and hobby use. As with most art materials, supervise children during use and ensure they wash hands after handling the clay.

The 500 g pack contains a single block of Giotto DAS Air-Dry Modelling Clay in white.

The number of projects depends on the size and complexity. For small figurines or decorative items, you can typically create several pieces; larger sculptures will use more material. Plan based on your project size and scale.

Treat the clay as a classroom-and-craft material: keep it away from ingestion, wash hands after use, and supervise younger children. It is water-based and easy to clean up, but always follow standard safety practices when using art materials.
