Want to try a marbling wheel thrown pottery? Then our Klamath Clay Sample Flight is for you! A potter's sampling of four of our ever-popular and super colorful Klamath stoneware clay bodies, it includes one twelve lb. block each of our Klamath Buff, Klamath Yellow, Klamath White, and Klamath Brown Clay. All four fire at cone 5, and give you a nice color selection to play with.
We like all three for throwing, dinnerware, jiggering/jollying, and pressing. They are also great for handbuilding.
Block weight: 4 samples, 12 lbs.
FIRING RANGE: CONE 4 - 6 (2167-2232ºF). Best Results at CONE 5
Klamath Buff: Firing color: buff; texture: slightly smooth (<5% grog). Nothing can prepare you for the lush buffness of this clay when fired. It's also a super-functional clay that's good for whatever you want to do with it.
Klamath Yellow: Firing color: red/orange; texture: slightly smooth (<5% grog). Bright banana yellow when wet, Klamath Yellow turns a rich orange brown when fired. Clay magic!
Klamath White: Firing color: Cream; texture: slightly smooth (<5% grog). You need a good color contrast for great marbling, so we included our Klamath White. It’s a really good all-round clay with a nice creamy fired color.
Klamath Brown: Firing color: Brown; texture: slightly smooth (<5% grog). A deep, rich, dark-chocolate brown when fired. Yummy.
Ships FREE in the U.S. a USPS in a Large Flat Rate Box.

*Please be aware that natural impurities may occasionally occur in our clay! Our clays are made with natural minerals, mined from the earth. In some rare cases, natural impurities, or ribbons of other minerals, are mixed in with the raw materials provided by our suppliers. This can lead to clays that don’t perform the way they are supposed to. If you have any questions about a particular clay body, please reach out to info@seattlepotterysupply.com.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
What is the best clear glaze to use with this clay?
We have had success with Amaco's HF-9 Zinc-Free Clear. I will say that the darker the clay body is the more likely you are to see some milky-ness in your clear. This is caused by micro bubbling in the glaze. While HF-9 has performed the best on our darker clays, there is still a chance you'll get a cloudy clear. Hope this helps!

Just wanted to verify the total weight of all 4 clays combined. Thanks!
Each block is 12 lbs, so 48 lbs all together (plus about 2 for the box itself).

I love the photo with the cup being blue with the blue glaze. It says that it was the brown. How was the blue achieved? I fire to cone 6 with my midrange glazes. How would it change the colors of the clay if you have samples at 5? Thank you!
This mug was made by Van Isle Clayworks, use the link to inquire what glaze she used on these beautiful pieces. I would recommend firing darker clays at cone 5 as they can bloat a bit at cone 6. Testing is always a good idea to get the ersults you desire!

If using this for handbuilding, do you wedge the same as on the video, then cut a slab and then put it through the slab roller?
Yes, that is correct.
