Foundry Hill Cream Ball Clay 10 Pounds
An intermediate-grained ball clay blend offering excellent moisture retention and more plasticity. In plastic bodies, for example, the moisture retention means that items will dry slower and this can lead to a more even drying process.

although mfg. say it can be used alone @ cone 10, this clay is highly plastic and shrinks excessively and feels sticky when used alone. Cream to buff in oxidation (low iron). Can be used w/10% feldspar at cone 56 for a throwing body but recommended to add grog for more tooth. The mine closed in 1989, but a new source is now available.
