Attractively flecked stoneware body based on a ball clays and fireclay deposits mined from our site in South Staffordshire, near Walsall.
Superb throwing properties for small or large pieces.
Flecking burns nicely through covering glazes giving a reduction fired appearance under oxidising conditions.
An extremely good body for thrown domestic stoneware.
A note regarding fleck variation: The fleck size/density in our flecked bodies is variable from batch to batch due to the nature of the raw material supplied to us. The user must sample/batch test in their own application before proceeding. Potclays cannot accept any liability for fleck variations batch-to-batch which are outside of our control.
Can I use items made from your flecked clays in the microwave? Yes – the fleck in our clays is created by an iron-bearing compound which is not metallic therefore will not reflect the microwaves.
