Looking for a clay texture that instantly brings ocean vibes to your pottery or soap? This coral reef texture stamp is inspired by the Orbicella Annularis, also known as the great star coral. Its rich, intricate surface mimics the natural growth of Caribbean coral, giving your clay pieces a beautifully organic, handmade look.
It’s perfect for ceramic students, hobbyists, or artists looking to add a natural touch to their work. Works great on porcelain, stoneware, polymer clay, cold porcelain, or melt-and-pour soaps. You can create textures that look like they were found on the seafloor!
Orbicella Annularis is one of the oldest coral species in the Caribbean. Some colonies are over 800 years old! Talk about timeless design inspiration.
This stamp is a great addition to your pottery toolbox or a lovely gift for a friend starting their clay or soap journey. A must-have for ocean-themed creations, bath product makers, and coastal craft lovers.
Using this stamp is super easy. Just place your hand inside the piece you’re stamping (especially if it has thin walls) and press with the stamp. These are firmer than the rubber ones used for paper, so you’ll want to stamp when the clay is in leather-hard stage. The drier the clay, the more pressure you’ll need.
And remember—this stamp isn’t just for ceramics. You can use it with polymer clay, soap, or any moldable material. Just a heads up: these ceramic stamps aren’t made for ink because they’re made of a tough acrylic material, not rubber. That’s what makes them perfect for pressing into clay!

BITERSWIT GUIDE: USING & CARING FOR YOUR STAMPS
Here’s our Biterswit guide with tips on how to take care of your stamps and how to use them like a pro.
HOW TO STAMP – Little Tips & Tricks :)
- Super easy! Your clay is ready to stamp when it’s still soft and shapeable—not too dry. It should be soft or at a leather-hard stage so the stamp can sink in nicely. You’ll figure out the sweet spot with a bit of trial and error depending on your clay type, moisture, and room conditions.
- Avoid stamping on material that’s too hard—it could break your stamp.
- Try out different levels of pressure until you find what works best with your clay. Since the stamp is transparent, you can peek from the side to see how deep it’s going.
- Bigger stamps need more pressure, so it can help to support your piece from underneath with something like a metal base, your hand, fingers—whatever works to keep it steady. Big stamps are great for flat objects like plates, trays, coasters, or thicker-edged pieces. For delicate pieces, we recommend using smaller stamps since they need less pressure.
- If the stamp sticks to the clay, a light dusting of cornstarch on the surface can work wonders to keep it from sticking.
OTHER WAYS TO USE YOUR STAMP
Your stamp isn’t just for ceramics! You can also use it on:
- Cold process Soaps (When they are soft)
- Polymer clay
- White air-dry clay
- Cookie dough
- And other similar materials
