Palo Posted March 15, 2016 Report Share Posted March 15, 2016 Do you know any flameware clay sellers (“flameproof†clay formulated to withstand thermal shock when heated)? And do you know any in Europe? I'd like to make products of it, but am afraid of experimenting with the clay production. Many thanks in advance Palo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chilly Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 From the forums page, search for flameware. There have been a few threads on this, but I don't think you'll find much help as most seem to be against it as too risky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perkolator Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 The only one I know of currently available anymore is one made by Leslie Ceramics/IMCO and that's for USA/California. I think a lot of companies stopped producing them because there's too much risk since consumers are so "sue-happy" these days. Quite unfortunate. Good luck finding one in the UK, can't help there.

terrim8 Posted March 23, 2016 Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 If you make a small batch to test for yourself, let me know! i would like to try this out - maybe I will this summer & I'll post recipe & results. I would just use it myself rather than sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobS Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 HI there, Standard Ceramic has a newer clay, #762, which they bill as kitchenware. After initial glaze fit testing, I made a couple of stove top pots and am using them for an extended test. So far, the clay body and glazes are taking the abuse on a gas stove. I don't know if I'd ever sell or give these type of pots away, but for my use at home I'm happy so far. Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody get that lady a car kiln! My back hurts just watching her load. Looks like her clay formula is proprietary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
