White Clay
Our collection of white clay brings together a refined palette perfect for sculpting, throwing, modelling, and more. These clay options provide smooth workability and consistent performance across several ceramic disciplines, with products including white earthenware, crank, sanded, and porcelain bodies. Find soft-textured, versatile clay made for amateurs, educators, and professional studios and suited for firing at temperatures ranging from 1,100 to 1,300 degrees.
A Range of White Shades
The product range spans across a broad spectrum of shades, colours, and textures, ranging from soft, warm white earthenware clay to high-firing, bright white porcelain. One of the most popular clays, White St. Thomas, is ideal for handbuilding and general-purpose studio use.
White earthenware clays like Studio White Earthenware are great for lower-temperature firing, offering an off-white hue and excellent response to glazing.
Using White Clay
Clay in this colour is often praised for its versatility and adaptability across several ceramics processes. Its smooth surface makes it ideal for decorative paint, slip trailing, underglaze, and more, while the moisture content and plasticity of the clay support techniques like coiling and throwing.
Grogged clay bodies, like White Grogged Stoneware, are often used for their structural strength in large sculpture work.
