PURPOSE: To obtain a photocurable clay easily shapable with fingertip, capable of giving in a short time a molded form excellent in transparency, colorability and designability, by specifying the complex viscosity coefficient of a photosensitive resin composition having plasticity, pseudoplasticity or thixotropy.

CONSTITUTION: This photocurable clay is obtained by bringing the complex viscosity coefficient of a plastic, pseudoplastic or thixotropic photosensitive resin composition to 5×104 to 1×107 (pref. 2×105 to 5×105) poise at 25°C. This clay can be cured in a short time by active energy beam irradiation (e.g. ultraviolet light irradiation) to obtain a clear-colored or transparent cured product.
