Speckled Buff (LA403)

This Clay body was specifically formulated by request from Midwest & Eastern potters. Low in sand and grog content, speckled buff is smooth textured and an excellent throwing body. The color palette is perhaps best described as 'desert' or 'Southwest'. Fired in oxidation, Speckled Buff falls into the tan/brown color range. (Stocked in Portland).
Shrinkage 12% (±2%), Water Absorption 3% (±1%).
