Georgies Stoneware Clays (Cone 4-7)
Georgies clays can be combined to reach quantity discounts


More Clays: LowfireHighfireDryPaper Slip

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.

Each bag of clay is 25 lbs.
Our boxes are 9" x 9" x 14" and hold 50lbs

Mazama Red Stoneware (CC554)

Mazama is a most versatile clay body! It's vitreous, created to use for tableware, and very plastic, with 5% 35-mesh grog. This exciting new clay just performs in wheelwork, handbuilding, and small-to-medium-sized sculpture.

Mazama is a variation on our Pioneer Dark clay and the difference is COLOR. Because Pioneer Dark is a medium brown khaki color, it works well with glazes, but on its own might not offer the richness of color some potters look for. On the other hand, on the "too red!" side, our Dundee Red and Trail Mix Cinnamon on their own are fabulous, but they often overwhelm glazes.Mazama becomes the Goldilocks of cone 6 red: it's just right!

Pat Horsley Clay (CC675)

Pat's clay is a light buff color which might offer an occasional iron spot. Slightly grogged, it's a good choice for handbuilding, wheelthrowing, or a combination of the two. A professional's choice, and great for functional work.

Pioneer Dark w/Speckles (CC1013)

A warm toasty color with a "non-toxic" black frit (an alternative to maganese which carries health & safety issues for skin entry & inhalation during firing) has been added to create speckles of varying sizes for a natural reduction body feel and look. These frits add a bit of texture in the raw state, similar to the feel of grog and appear somewhat prickly in the bisque. They will incorportate into the clay body and glaze during the firing. Go to our Instagram page for more information and test results. Bisque to ^04. Glazed to ^6 at medium speed.
