For great savings in a high quality imitation sponge, these hydra sponges can't be beat. They are manufactured with a smooth texture to look and feel similar to a natural silk sponge and can be used for anything from smoothing clay in ceramic or pottery projects, applying paint in household or craft projects to washing dishes. They are gently curved at the sides and somewhat flattened at the top and bottom. They are clean, uniform and fit comfortably in your hand. Its economical price allows you to use it as a disposable sponge for oil techniques; but you’ll love it for all techniques. Measures 2.75 inch and 1 inch thick, available in packs of 3, 12 and 25
