The Sgraffito Set

Goal: Give potters a versatile set of precision tips for detailed sgraffito work, built to hold up through extended use. Feedback Form: link (soon) Carve crisp, controlled sgraffito details with a tip for every mark. The Tortuga Sgraffito Tip Set is a collection of six precision tips paired with a single soft-grip handle, designed for detailed surface work on leather-hard and bone-dry clay. Each tip is shaped for a specific type of mark—from ultra-fine linework to broad texture and shading—and swaps quickly into the shared handle, so you can move between styles without juggling multiple tools. The set leads with a tungsten carbide fine point, built for exceptionally sharp, hairline detail that holds its edge through repeated passes. The remaining five tips are diamond-coated with an additional layer of titanium for extra durability, giving you long-lasting performance across a range of shapes and sizes. The single-handle system keeps your workspace clean and simple. One tool in hand, six tips at the ready. The Set Includes Fine Point (Tungsten Carbide) — ultra-sharp linework and precise detail Flame Tip (Diamond + Titanium) — tapered shape for flowing lines and shading Needle Tip (Diamond + Titanium) — extended point for deeper, defined marks Small Ball (Diamond + Titanium) — dotted texture and tight curved strokes Medium Ball (Diamond + Titanium) — broader texture and rounded mark-making Large Ball (Diamond + Titanium) — wide coverage for shading and filled areas Features Six specialized tips for a full range of sgraffito techniques Single soft-grip handle with quick-swap tip system Tungsten carbide fine point for crisp, precise linework Diamond-coated tips with titanium overlay for extended durability Works on leather-hard and bone-dry clay, as well as underglaze surfaces Great for linework, shading, texture, and decorative detail What's Included 1 x Soft-grip slim handle 6 x Interchangeable sgraffito tips (1 tungsten carbide fine point, 5 diamond + titanium) Part of our ongoing studio experiments—try it out and let us know what you think.
