- Comment According to the FAO’s Guidelines for Soil Description ( http://www.fao.org/docrep/019/a0541e/a0541e.pdf [16.6.2017]), the characteristics of this texture are as follows: it can be rolled into a wire of about 3 mm in diameter, which can in turn be moulded into a ring of about 2–3 cm in diameter; it is cohesive and sticky, with no grains visible or discernible to the touch; it does not gnash between the teeth; it has high plasticity and a moderately shiny surface after squeezing between the fingers.

- Comment Voir aussi:- sable [ IATE:1397107 ]- limon [ IATE:1254500 ]- argile [ IATE:1401653 ]La matière correspondant à cette texture permet de confectionner un boudin de 3 mm de diamètre environ, puis un anneau de 2-3 cm de diamètre environ. Elle est cohérente et collante, de surface modérément brillante sous la pression des doigts et de plasticité élevée et ne grince pas entre les dents. Aucun grain n'est visible ni perceptible au toucher.
