Moist Pottery Clay


Clay manufacturing at Sheffield Pottery is completely unique in the industry. We have expanded our production line to include additional machinery setting a new standard for the clay industry. Dry clay ingredients are are precisely weighed in our custom batching system, wet mixed in our world class Eirich mixer, and much or your clay is additionally processed in our Sweco 72" flow through separator and an iron filtration magnet which is used by no other clay maker in America .

THE SWECO UNIT enables us to dry screen the entire batch of pottery clay as it goes through the production process. Problematic materials like fire clay, grog and lizella can be carefully controlled. We have found that normally clean materials like ball clay, flint and feldspar can also have oversized nodules of lignite, wood, paper, stones and other unwanted material. Screening the entire batch will ensure that no contaminants remain. Previously we only screened the fire clay and lizella components of our stoneware bodies. By offering 30, 40, 50, 80 and 100 mesh screens we are finding that many of our earthenware and porcelain customers are benefiting from the process as well. Many of our stock bodies are available screened. Any custom or other stock body can be ordered screened.


THE IRON FILTRATION MAGNET is a four-tier unit made with "rare earth" magnets. As the dry batches cascade through the filter it will trap ferrous metal contaminants that come from processing machinery or the raw clays themselves. This option can be used with or without any mesh screen, and will help eliminate iron spots in the clay.The powered dry clay is precisely portioned through our custom Batching System. This system is accurate to 0.5 grams per ton of dry materials ensuring the consistency of our clay bodies whether we are making one of our stock clays or your own custom formula.

No other clay makers have the superior Eirich Mixer for the wet mixing of your clay. Some makers do not even wet mix their clays at all. Before going to the wet mix, many of our clays are sent though the Sweco Magnetic Screening unit. This is another process used by no other clay maker in the industry. Your clay is then sent through one our massive, industrial quality, deairing pugmills creating a perfect clay every time !


Here you can order online all of our exceptional stock moist pugged clay bodies.

We have more than a million pounds of clay ready to ship from our Sheffield warehouse; from our own natural Sheffield clay to the finest translucent English Grolleg.

"First they unload the boxes of clay from their truck. Then they immediately load my finished work right back on the truck! For well over a decade Sheffield Pottery has supplied me with both excellent customer service and the most consistent and finest prepared stoneware clay body. Furthermore, their on-site gallery has supported me by selling my wheel-thrown functional pottery. John, Diane, Benny, Chris, Lee and all the folks at Sheffield Pottery truly care about their customers!"

Our Clay Disclaimer

Our clays are guaranteed to be delivered to you at their intended formula and water content within the range of accuracy of our equipment. (Our mixing system is accurate to 0.2 lb. of dry materials.)
Note that:
-The materials used to produce your clay are mined by companies that do not necessarily recommend their products to be used by potters and they do not guarantee the purity of them. Therefore we can not be responsible for any variations or contaminants that are beyond our control. Using our Dry Materials refining system will greatly improve the dependability of these clays for a minimal extra cost.
-Since there are so many variables on the user end, you must test the clay to be sure that it works for your application given your own techniques and environment. We can only guarantee that the clay body is what you ordered, but we cannot guaranty that it will work for your needs. Sheffield Pottery is never responsible for any failed final product.
