Georgies Lowfire Clays (Cone 06-1)
Clays can be combined to reach quantity discounts.


More Clays: MidrangeHighfireDrySlip

Lowfire clays, also called earthenware clays, are rarely taken to higher temperatures than cone 04 (about 1940 Fahrenheit). These sample pictures show the clay colors after oxidation firing in an electric kiln. They're easy to work with, easy to fire, and offer the widest range of glaze color possibilities for decoration. Lowfire clays must be glazed with foodsafe glazes, and the glazes fired to their proper maturity, to make foodsafe ware.


Cherry Creek Red (CC546)

The Cherry Creek line offers great reliability for both handbuilding and wheelthrowing. They make use of Red Art clay, offering rich red color when fired to cone 04 bisque. No-lead glazes such as Duncan IN1001 will fit and keep the rich red color of the clay. Shrinks 8% in firing. (Sample fired in oxidation at cone 06.)

CC601 Modeling Clays are blends of varying ingredients. Colors and textures may vary from batch to batch. Works well for "utility" projects where the clay is expendable, kids "playtime" projects, or other uses when the budget counts. Recommended for firing at no higher temperature than cone 04. Modeling clays are not always in stock: please call for current availability.

Piepenburg Raku (CC537)

By permission, we mix Robert Piepenburg's Raku Clay formula. This clay utilizes kyanite as a grog and filler. Kyanite expands during the firing, knitting the clay together with a network of needle-like crystals, enabling you to throw and construct larger forms with fewer losses to thermal shock. Shrinks 8% in firing. (Sample fired in oxidation at cone 06.)

Play Clay (CC514)

Easily formed and bright white to show off color. Play Clay is a great clay for K-6 school projects and kids' projects. Also a preferred choice of tilemakers. Works well with leadfree glazes including commercial brands (like Duncan). Shrinks 8% in firing. (Sample fired in oxidation at cone 06.)
