Reviews
This clay was hard to work with, the clay body was quite dry and needed some time to rehydrate and wedge back to a throwing state. I bought 3 bags; they were all the same. Could be that it was sitting and dried out or this clay body just isn’t great for throwing.
In any regard, I won’t be using this Clay body any longer. I don’t like the throwing plasticity or the color once fired to come 6 electric.
