Buy: 12.5kg Potclays Flecked Stoneware
Potclays Flecked Stoneware - Our favourite clay to throw on the wheel. Stable and forgiving. It is coarse though, and it is recommended to test your glaze. Abbots Gloss white dipped will have a rough finish to touch, with random flecked burned through. If you are after a smooth finish, I have tested it on Amaco handpainted River Birch - 3 coats.
Potclays recommend that the kiln shelve to be well coated with refractory wash to prevent sticking during firing
Firing range Cone 3 to 11. We fire it at cone 6
Indicative texture 4 (Smooth 1-coarse10)
Shrinkage 1100C = 9% and 1200C = 12%
Microwave Use: Basalt is an iron-bearing compound which is not metallic, therefore fired ware can be used in a microwave.
Always refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines for optimal firing conditions for your specific kiln setup.
Pickup ONLY from our studio in Dairy Flat, Auckland or simple add it to your pottery wheel rental order
