Portal Frame
$8.00
The Portal Frame is a two-part frame maker. First press the inner insert into your rolled clay slab to sink a recessed tall pointed oval panel into the centre. Then set the outer cutter around it and cut through to release the piece. You are left with a finished tall pointed oval frame: a clean raised border around a sunken centre panel, ready to hold a photo, a small mirror, a pressed motif, or to hang as a wall piece. Part of the Frames collection.

Best sellers in Forms
Use the form anywhere

Drape FormingLay a soft slab over the form and let gravity do the work. Lift it away once leather hard for an even, repeatable shape.

Slump FormingPress a slab into the form to shape bowls, dishes, and trays with a clean rim and a consistent depth every time.

Production RunsMake matching sets for studios and markets. On forms with a screw-in handle you can lift and turn without touching your clay.
How to use
Screw In the HandleIf your form came with a handle, screw it into the threaded hole underneath before you start. It lets you lift and turn the form without pressing on your clay.
Use a Release LayerDrape a thin cloth or a sheet of newsprint between the slab and the form. Clay releases cleanly and you avoid drag marks on the surface.
Wait for Leather HardLeave the piece on the form until it is leather hard. Lifting too early distorts the shape; leaving it too long makes the clay shrink onto the form.
Work at a Comfortable HeightIf you added the stand, screw it into the same hole as the handle. It raises the form to working height so you are not hunched over the table.
Clean and Store DryWash off clay with water and a soft brush, then dry fully before storing. Keep forms out of direct sun and away from heat, which can soften plant-based plastic over time.
