Half–Half

The Half–Half a tradition art style of the Elmette. For this the Elmette use their home-world’s dry sand and bake it under the sun for a while, this turns the sand to a reddish-tone.

The locals use the red sand mixed with the normal (unbaked) sand (which is white in colour) to create intricate sculptors by hand. The baked sand provides the structure with strength and durability while the white sand can be easily be modeled into shapes.

Initially they used this technique to create Jarrowings, an architectural dome. However later the skill expanded in such a way that almost anything could be made. The half-half is so unique that some people believe that the KTM Bose also uses this sands used in this art.
