Collection note: Tacto de pala is given only as the number 4/10. The page does not say which end of the scale is soft, so no firmness word is recorded. The description says tacto cómodo, which is not a firmness level. The core material is not stated. The finish BRILLO+ARENOSO combines gloss and a sandy texture, so the rough surface may be only partial. Weight, frame material and thickness are not stated.
