Dry Pre-Mixed Clays
More Clays: Lowfire Midrange Highfire Paper Slip
The dry clays on this page are made with the same blend of raw materials as our moist pugged clays; we just haven't added the water. The materials have been thoroughy mixed together and bagged into 50-pound units. Mixing your own clay from start to finish has both benefits and drawbacks. It gives you better control of the consistency and ingredients in your clay, but generally requires a substantial investment in equipment. Mixing your own clay can also provide you with a way to re-use and recycle scraps from production, but imposes a cost in storage and work space. If you're interested in this process, we'd be happy to provide you with more information. Please feel free to call or email us!
Dry clays can be combined to reach quantity discounts ...
