Applications & Recommendations
Wheel Throwing
Its balanced plastic composition makes it suitable for shaping bowls, mugs, plates, small vases, and similar ceramic forms on the pottery wheel.
Small Hand-Built Forms
Suitable for producing small decorative objects, figurines, and functional ceramic pieces using slab building, coil building, or free-form modeling techniques.
Detailing & Surface Work
The relatively low grog content creates a lightly textured surface while allowing detailing and surface-finishing processes to be carried out with control.
Glazing Applications
Its light cream body provides a natural base for a variety of glazes and decorative applications. The selected glaze must be compatible with the appropriate firing range of the clay body.
FIRING NOTICE
As the firing temperature is not specified for this product, the bisque and glaze firing schedules should be determined according to the manufacturer’s technical data.
DRYING NOTICE
Wheel-thrown and hand-built pieces should be formed with even wall thickness and dried under controlled conditions to reduce the risk of cracking and deformation.
Product Advantages
Balanced Plasticity
Provides comfortable and controlled handling during shaping, supporting both wheel throwing and hand-modeling applications.
Lightly Grogged Composition
The 15% grog content supports the clay body without creating an excessively coarse or rough surface texture.
Light Cream Appearance
The light cream tone provides a simple appearance on unglazed surfaces while helping colored glazes and decorative finishes appear more clearly.
Versatile Application
Suitable for wheel throwing, small-scale hand-built forms, and decorative ceramic projects.
Before full-scale production, testing is recommended for forming, drying, firing temperature, color development, and glaze compatibility.
