liambesaw Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 What region do you live in? You generally want to get something locally available. West coast you have Laguna, aardvark, Georgie's, Seattle pottery supply and clay art center (and probably more). Colorado and Midwest you have continental clay and others, east coast you have standard and others. In the south there's Kentucky mudworks and others. So the best idea is to see what's available locally and then buy a bag of each and see which one you like best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried Aardvark, Continental Clay and Laguna porcelains. I like Laguna #16 the very best. If you are in the east, I think it is called Miller's 16.

neilestrick Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 Standard #365 is fabulous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hulk Posted May 3, 2020 Report Share Posted May 3, 2020 Out west, also Clay Planet (I'm trying their smooth red and Venus white) and IMCO - they both carry a porcelain (both are also near other places we go). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
