White Earthenware Clay

This is a great, and versatile clay with a smooth texture and fires to a nice white. The clay is especially suitable for throwing, the exceptional strength of greenware makes turning and trimming a delight. 

Unfired Characteristics: A very smooth and even body which is remarkably plastic from the bag, becoming strong in the leather hard state.

Working Notes: This clay contains a ball clay mix which makes the body more plastic, so is excellent for the ambitious throwing projects as well as achieving detail in hand-built projects. Our White Earthenware has even achieved low stoneware temperatures (1240°C) with some glazes, so it has some versatility. However we would advise staying with the more traditional earthenware glaze firing temperatures. If however you wish to experiment, please protect your kiln by using sacrificial dishes.

Fires to a warm white at bisque and through glaze temperatures.
