Playing around with earth

Like most of the boys I like to play. As I found the earth used to build the house (almost) just under my feet. I prepared a few tests to find out about some of its charachteristics. Doing so I thought about Tadelakt and thought of applying a similar polishing to an earthen ball. The result quite fascinated me…

On the left the unpolished ball…On the right the polished one (no wachs or any other additives).
And here two different colours of earth. Both polished.
