Special Features

  • The Delft Clay Method is a highly refined form of sand casting that substitutes genuine Delft Clay from Holland for ordinary casting sand. Reproduce your original models quickly with this unique Delft clay casting system. Keep the traditional techniques of sand casting alive and well with this re-usable, ultra-fine Dutch clay mix.
  • This is the Delft Clay Kit includes 4.4 lbs. of Delft Clay, a 60 mm Aluminum Ring Frame, instructional on QR Brcode..
  • The process was invented by Hans Karreman, a Dutch goldsmith. Delft Clay is much finer than casting sand, providing remarkably sharp and highly detailed castings in gold, silver, copper-based alloys, pewter, etc.
  • Castings require very little finishing work. Once you have cast your piece, the Delft Clay can be re-used. Since this is a cold-molding process, molds can be made from patterns composed of wood, wax, epoxy, plastics, and, of course, metal. Because this is a type of sand casting, it is best suited to producing castings without pronounced undercuts.
