Georgies Midrange Clays (Cone 4-7)
Midrange clays, which include stoneware and some porcelains, are more durable than earthenware clays but color palettes for glazing them may be more limited. (The bright colors available at lowfire temperatures are more difficult to achieve at midrange temperatures.) Unless otherwise noted, these sample pictures show the clay colors after oxidation firing in an electric kiln. Midrange clays are considered foodsafe, even when unglazed, when the clay is fired to its full maturity at cone 5-6.

Dark rich brown, almost black. Best when fired to cone 5. The umber addition brings extra flux to the clay, making this a very tight body. You may wish to try clay/glaze buttons or test tiles before proceeding with a body of work. The intense clay color sometimes requires an extra coat of glaze. Shrinks 14.5% in firing. |
