Quick verdict
Choosing pottery tools & molds means deciding between a broad mixed assortment and a purpose-defined trimming kit. The Mixed Lot leans toward variety, while the Amylove set is aimed at a more specific clay workflow. The listed prices are $11.65 apart. Condition is a meaningful tie-breaker: one is used and the other is new. If you want wider task coverage, start with the mixed lot; if you want a defined trimming format, start with the Amylove set.

Where each product wins
The mixed lot wins for project breadth. It is categorized as detailing tools and spans ceramic, pottery clay, and cleanup work. Its named mix-Kemper, Loew-Cornell, Marx, and more-makes it a fit for shoppers who want a varied group rather than a single defined kit. That recommendation comes from the mixed detailing format and stated craft scope, not from assuming that a larger piece count means better results.
Amylove wins for a defined pottery-trimming format. Its title calls out ribs, ceramics tools, and a foot shaper, while the description adds clay molds and texture work. The set is labeled new, which separates it from the used mixed lot. This is the clearer match when you want the kit's identity to stay close to trimming and shaping rather than sorting through a mixed assortment.
Product notes
Mixed Lot of 30 Ceramic, Pottery Clay, Clean up Tools Kemper, Loew-Cornell +more
The mixed lot makes sense for a clay bench that benefits from several kinds of detailing tools rather than a single defined format. The assortment is described for sculpting, molding, and ceramics crafts, giving it a concrete reason to choose when projects shift between those tasks. The limitation is condition: the pieces are used, with paint or other residue and rust spots on a few tools. Some doll tools are mixed in too, so the assortment may require more sorting for pottery-only work. Choose it for the stated range of sculpting, molding, and ceramics uses, not for a uniform collection.

Amylove's set is the more structured choice for a focused clay bench. It breaks down into seven pottery trimming tools in assorted shapes and 20 pre-cut chamois pieces, while each clay tool is about 8 x 9 cm and each suede cloth is about 7.5 x 9.5 cm. That defined breakdown is a concrete reason to choose it when those pieces fit your trimming, rib, foot-shaping, carving, or texture tasks. The limitation is specialization: 20 of the pieces are chamois, so the format is less varied than a mixed detailing assortment.
Final choice by use case
- For varied sculpting, molding, and cleanup: Choose the mixed lot. Its detailing-tool type and mixed craft scope fit projects that move between tasks. Be prepared for the used condition, residue, rust spots, and doll tools in the assortment.
- For a defined trimming setup: Choose the Amylove set. The title's ribs and foot shaper, plus seven assorted tools and 20 chamois pieces, match focused shaping and texture tasks.
The decision is straightforward: choose the mixed lot for a wider assortment across clay-related tasks, or choose Amylove when the listed trimming, rib, foot-shaping, and chamois format matches your workflow.
