Sibelco Smooth White Throwing Clay

Sibelco Smooth White Throwing Clay (WM) - Stoneware

A truly wonderful smooth white clay. It's plasticity makes it perfect for throwing. This clay turns exceptionally well at the leather hard stage, and burnishes to a perfect sheen. It fires to a creamy off white colour at stoneware temperatures.

Unfired characteristics: Extremely plastic and smooth. A light grey out of the bag.

Working notes: It has a very long working time, and is much more plastic than some other white clays. It is a good alternative to porcelain for those that want to work with a white clay body but without the difficult working properties porcelain is known for.
