Depth — Finger Stones

€65.00


Set of 7 pieces. Ready to use.


Uchigumori finger stones — harder and finer than Clarity. The most demanding result the finger stones can produce. On clad they bring out maximum contrast and definition; on honyaki they even and harmonise the finish — soft enough to hold contrast, fine enough to lift the micro-detail a full mirror or a flat matte would otherwise swallow. Each type is marked for quick identification during work.

What Depth does depends entirely on the surface beneath it — and the numbers make it plain. Used standalone, straight after a bench stone, it leaves the brightest, most matte cladding in the whole range: a clean, luminous haze. Bring the same stone to a refined surface instead, after Zero and a single thin pass of KREAM Detail, and it does almost the opposite: it holds a near-mirror core, deepens and darkens the cladding, and lifts the contrast. One finger stone, two surfaces, two finishes at opposite ends — because what changed was the surface, not the stone.

Each type is marked for quick identification during work.

Two finishes, one stone — it depends what's beneath it.

Depth doesn't leave one finish; it leaves the finish the surface underneath allows. These two cards are the same stone on two different bases.

Standalone, straight after a bench stone, Depth leaves the brightest, most matte cladding in the range — a clean, luminous haze. (The core here is from a fine Narutaki suita →)

On a refined surface, after Zero and a single thin pass of KREAM Detail, the same stone does almost the opposite — it holds a near-mirror core and brings the cladding to real reflection and detail.

One stone, two ends of the range. What changed is the surface, not the stone.
