A teardrop polymer clay cutter divided by bold curving vein channels into broad open sections, drawing from the stylised leaf and palmet forms found across Ottoman botanical illustration.
All sizes listed for polymer clay cutters are approximate and given in millimetres. Minor variation is normal and part of the handcrafted nature of 3D printed cutters.
Rinse your cutter with warm water after use and allow to air dry completely before storing. Avoid acetone, harsh solvents, or prolonged heat exposure as these can affect the material over time. Store flat or upright in a dry place away from direct sunlight.
Damar means vein, Damla means drop. This seljuk polymer clay cutter takes a clean teardrop outer form and divides the interior into broad curved sections through bold vein channels radiating from a central spine, creating an open, architectural quality distinct from the denser scale and scroll work elsewhere in the collection.
The stylised leaf with visible vein structure appears consistently across Seljuk and Ottoman botanical illustration and architectural carving, where the natural geometry of plant forms was abstracted into repeating decorative elements used in tile borders, manuscript margins and carved stone relief.
