“It is not the material, but the absence of the human labour, which makes the thing worthless; and a piece of terra cotta, or of plaster of Paris, which has been wrought by the human hand, is worth all the stone in Carrara, cut by machinery.”

John Ruskin, The Seven Lamps of Architecture (1849)

Sculpting Tools

It's the art of shaping malleable materials, mostly but not limited to stone, clay, and bone, into usable items. The lower half of the skill's progression is dominated by pottery and ceramics, tying directly into the game's liquid system. As sculptors specialize and advance, they gain access to a much wider selection of decorative and ornamental work, moving beyond function into craftsmanship.
