Specialist Clays
True creativity requires the right materials, and specialist crafts require specialist clays. Our specialist clay range is crafted to meet the demands of experienced potters, ceramic artists, and those looking to hone their craft. Whether you're producing finely detailed models, hand throwing vessels or exploring sculptural work, our clays deliver performance and a perfect finish every time. These clays offer characteristics like improved strength, smooth texture, and tailored firing ranges, and have been carefully formulated to support reliable results, glaze compatibility, and allow for creative freedom.
Tailored Clays to Support Every Technique
Our tailored range includes high-quality clay bodies suitable for earthenware and stoneware temperatures, as well as options suitable for porcelain work. From highly plastic materials that are perfect for throwing, to dry blends ideal for modelling, each clay is selected to meet a specific need.
Selecting the right clay can make a significant difference in the making process and the final outcome. Certain options are perfect for reducing cracking and warping, while others are great choices for use with tools. Whether you're a domestic potter, in an educational setting or a commercial workshop, our specialist clays are trusted for their real-world reliability and performance.
