 Variety of Texture:

There is a spiky texture given off in this image which differs from the smooth feel. The spikes are highlighted from the undertone which makes the texture appear quite sharp. 

This image displays a rough feeling texture through the use of highlights and shadows which exaggerate the surface of the object. 

The texture of this object appears to be quite smooth and soft and delicate. You can tell this through the shadows and the reflection among the background.

The use of tone displays texture in an intriguing way in this one as it is not in depth enough for us to see the texture of this. The lines in this create a bobbly effect and allow the audience to picture this.
