Throws like a dream
This clay is great! So far I love it, it was moist, not dried out even slightly and it was a dream to throw with. Interested to see how it does through the drying and firing process. Also a side note, I saw some negative reviews because the clay came moldy. If your a potter then you would know that that is very normal as it is being stored moist. The mold can be wedged right into the clay without a problem. Some people even believe it makes the elasticity of the clay even better. So bring on the mold. Lol I live in Hawaii and itās expensive to get pottery supplies shipped here so this was a great value for the money. So happy I found this product.

Perfect
I absolutely love this clay for throwing and even sculpting. It’s super plastic and even after getting a bag of it and letting it sit for a month, it remained the perfect consistency for throwing. I can’t really order clay anywhere else due to where I live, but I love this clay so much and am so grateful it ships to my area.

Beautiful consistency, affordable and reliable seller
AMAZING!! Almost reminds me of porcelain. That super soft, cream cheese like consistency is something I did not expect! Excited to throw with it. Shipping was relatively fast, considering I had this 50lb. box shipped across the country! I did pay for a faster shipping method ($4.99 extra paid for delivery in 3-5 business days) and it was delayed. I contacted the seller, and they initiated a refund of my additional shipping cost, which was greatly appreciated! Ordered on 11/14/20 ā shipped 2000+ miles ā received 11/23/20. So technically only 6 business days! For the price, with decently fast shipping included, and the high quality of the clay… you cannot go wrong with this. Will update review after working with clay on the wheel & firing to give further thoughts… but my first impression of it is fantastic!!

Worth a try
Was not easy to work with. Did alot of crazing. But it could be because I wasn’t familiar with working it.

soft and easy to wedge and throw
First time buying this clay and pleasantly surprised! Soft and easy to throw out of the bag! I made a 14″ pasta serving bowl and a 14″ serving dish to match. No cracks at all in greenware phase. Will bisque in a few days. I see a bunch of “complaints” about mold on the clay. This is a moist clay and that is normal. Mold adds plasticity to clay, just wedge it in. I know potters who intentionally try to let their clay mold for this reason. Same as a slip/scraps bucket.

Moist
Not a clay box that’s been sitting for years in a warehouse. It was easy to work with, and the clay worked well on the wheel. Also it was suitable for hand building. I would recommend this item.
Very nice kit! Great quality for the price! I havenāt used it yet , but it is installed. So far I would buy again. –
