Buy: 10kg primo pro White Stoneware with Grog W2502

An easy to throw stoneware, great for beginners thru to seasoned potters.

The Primo-Pro White Stoneware Grog - W2505 is a versatile, high-quality clay that combines the smooth texture of stoneware with added durability from grog. Here's a detailed description:

• Color: This clay fires to a white or light cream color, making it an excellent base for showcasing glazes with bright, vibrant finishes.
• Texture: The inclusion of fine grog (ground, pre-fired ceramic material) gives the clay a slightly gritty texture, which helps reduce cracking and warping, particularly during drying and firing. The grog also adds strength, making the clay more forgiving and ideal for larger pieces or intricate forms.
• Plasticity: It has good workability, suitable for both handbuilding and wheel throwing. The plasticity allows for smooth shaping, while the grog provides stability, making it easier to work with compared to finer clays.
• Strength and Durability: The grog improves thermal shock resistance, so it's great for functional ware like mugs, bowls, and planters that need to withstand regular use and handling.
• Firing Range:
  • Bisque: Fires well at lower temperatures (around 1000°C, Cone 06).
  • Glaze: Performs excellently in the mid- to high-fire range (1200°C to 1300°C, Cone 6 to Cone 10), allowing for a variety of glazing techniques and finishes. The clay body remains strong and vitrified after firing.
• Ideal Uses: Due to its strength and versatility, it's perfect for functional pottery, such as tableware, or larger decorative pieces. Its grog content makes it resilient, reducing issues like warping and cracking that can occur with larger or more complex forms.

This clay is a great choice if you're looking for something durable yet aesthetically pleasing, offering a clean white base with the flexibility to create everything from delicate mugs to sturdy sculptures.
