Kathi Briefer-Gose makes metal texture plates that are rippled like that shown above. They are also great for a ‘faux retro’ cane effect on polymer clay.

Sorry for the delay in replying to this post. Just found it online…
The wooden texture squares with ridges I use to make the shards was one of those finds at a ceramics conference (NCECA) a few years ago. I don’t remember the vendor because it was an impulse buy at the last minute while rushing in-between demonstrations and lectures at the conference.
I think I remember asking the woman what it was “intended” use was for, and she mentioned something about using it to create a texture on a handle for pottery…
Wish I had more info… Will post if I come across them again!
