Iskuhi Posted August 24 Report Share Posted August 24 Hi, I am looking for clays that I can use for the hakeme technique. I am based in London, UK. Specifically, I am seeking replacements for the following clays: 211 Stoneware Hazelnut 365 Standard English Porcelain 266 Standard Dark Brown Clay These clays are available in the US but not in the UK, so I need suitable alternatives. From what I understand, it is important for the clays used in hakeme to have similar shrinkage rates. I have found porcelain clay, but the colored clays I’ve come across have low shrinkage rates. I would appreciate any recommendations on what clays to use for hakeme in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
