Notes: This stoneware is very strong while throwing and altering. The sand gives it a rough texture while throwing and trimming. Surface compression pushes the sand particles back down into the clay, or soft sponging can expose the sand and enhance the texture. Exposed sand fluxes leaving cratered pits in the fired surface yielding a localized metallic sheen. This body also flashes very well with a rich range of orange and toasty browns. – Notes from Sam Chumley
