Recipe Origin: This porcelaneous recipe is developed from research I conducted in grad school based on a CoorsTek analysis of the local clay I was harvesting in western Kansas. It’s a cream-firing, highly plastic throwing body, with a small percentage of fine grog added to lend some tooth. The high silica content in the body facilitates ash accumulation and performs exceptionally well in sodium atmospheres.
Purchasing and Pick-up: At $1.10/pound, 50 pounds would be $55.00. We do offer USPS shipping and local pick-up. Click HERE to learn more.
