WOOD-FIRED and RAKU CLAY

We now offer specially formulated clay bodies for those of you doing Raku work and Wood Firing.

Avoid the frustrations of wood fired kiln and Raku work with our clay bodies designed to handle the special stress of those processes.

Raku and Wood Firing Our Raku Clay designed with a high percentage of coarse grog to withstand the thermal shock of fast firing and cooling in Raku. Can be used for wheel work, handbuilding, and sculpture.

Our "Wood Light" clay is designed for  high temperature wood fired kilns. Shows excellent glaze results at high temperature. Screened and iron filtered for consistency.

For pit firing, try the Raku clay or S14. These bodies have a wide firing range and good thermal shock absorbtion.
When pit firing, bisque your peices in an electric kiln first for better results.
Expect a lot of broken peices when you pit fire... it's the nature of the beast, but by doing a bisque firing first, you can reduce your loses.

For customers ordering over 500lbs of clay, please contact us to arrange for the most economical shipping to your location. (See: Price Per Pound Table for orders shipped on our truck)
