## Description

Bastex 5 lbs Low Fire Pottery Clay - Terra Cotta, Cone 06. Earthware Potters Throwing Clay. Moist De-Aired Clay for Sculpting, Throwing, Firing and More.

## Features

- Natural Red Terra Cotta Clay - After firing in the kiln it will be a nice a rich terracotta color
- How to Fire - For the best results, bisque to Cone 04 then glaze to Cone 06.
- This clay is organic, made in the USA, is non-toxic and can be used for all kinds of different crafts.
- With 5 pounds of clay you can use it to make multiple small pieces or sculpt and let airdry. If you are airdrying it will not be a permanent piece and will break if made wet or dropped.
- Please note that, like any dark, damp, organic environments, blocks of moist clay are perfect growing grounds for mold. The type of mold that grows on clay is not harmful (but maybe smelly), and is actually a desirable trait to many potters, as it acts as a natural plasticizer

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this clay be dried in regular oven?**
A: No.  Firing this clay to maturity would require a temperature of approx. 1,800 F for around 4 hours. I think a self cleaning oven heats to about 900 F.  Hope this helps.

**Q: My left over clay has dried, can it be revived ? If yea, how ?**
A: Yes, just add water in small amounts until it becomes flexible again.

**Q: Can this be fired in a covered fire pit**
A: i dont recommend this clay for anything as i fired it to specs and it melted into a pile of junk. it wrecked a kiln shelf, completely melted into it

**Q: Is this clay good for firing in a pit?**
A: this clay is junk. see my other reviews
