Twin Arch
$8.84
The Twin Arch drape form shapes a rolled slab of clay into a deep dish with two soft low arches. Dust the slab and the form generously with cornflour so the clay will not stick, then drape the slab over the form and gently work it down to take the shape. Trim away the excess, smooth the edges, then lift the form away to release your dish. Each form comes with a free handle to hold it steady while you work, and an optional long stand is available as an add-on. Ideal for serving bowls, snack dishes, and catch-alls. Part of the Arches collection.

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.
