Chavant Le Beau Touche
Le Beau Touche is a non-drying oil based modelling clay. Soft and easy to work it’s great for large sculptures or sculptures needing quick build up. It holds fine detail and works well with texture stamps.
This sulphur-free modelling clay was introduced for its exceptional smoothness and adhesive qualities. Le Beau Touche is commonly used by artists who are looking for a product that will stick to basically any armature material. Its formula holds very good detail, carves and shapes easily, and has a tremendous flexibility which will not dry or crack.
The smallest amount of heat, just friction from rubbing it in your hands, will soften the original Le Beau Touche. These clays may feel slightly firm in the original extruded blocks but slicing off small amounts will make it very manageable.
Chavant Fine Art Sculpting Clays
Each type of Chavant Fine Art Sculpting Clay, also known as Plasteline, is suitable for all educational levels and professional sculptors in the Fine Art, Special Effect, and Product Design industries.
All will meet requirements for detail retention and surface development. Blocks are each individually wrapped.
Why is sulphur used in some of the clays? Sulphur is a non‑toxic filler that enhances the surface texture of the clay.
Why is sulphur removed from this Chavant clay? Sulphur‑free formulas are generally easier to make silicone rubber moulds (as Sulphur is known to inhibit Platinum Silicone curing) and also have less odour.
