BLACK VAN AKEN CLAY, ANTIQUE GOLD AND BLACK GLASS INCLUSIONS
A special day indeed! You get to try the fresh new Van Aken clay straight from the factory in the USA. Remember to leach it first, as Konstantinos recommends. For his ring project, you can use the black glass inclusions — or experiment with the new Antique Gold shade to switch up the colors. Enjoy!
Konstantinos Karalis is a polymer clay artist from Athens and the founder of Piloforizo. Trained in design and decoration, he discovered polymer clay in 1993 and gradually turned it from a hobby into his full-time work. During the Greek economic crisis, he created Pilofori and later expanded into Piloforizo, offering clay, tools, and materials to artists across Greece. Together with his husband Yiannis, he also opened The House, a creative space that brings Greek designers and makers together.
