Scarva Earthstone Professional PF500 Peter Meanley Salt Glaze Clay Body From £18.96
Firing Temp 1240-1300ºC
PF500 Peter Meanley has been working with clay for 45 years and making salt-glazed vessels for the past 25. In 1999 he was awarded a Ph.D. Doctor of Philosophy for his research into the nature of salt-glaze. He has exhibited all over the world with his work collected by museums and individuals. Using Peter’s experience combined with the Scarva / Valentine clay labs we have developed a new salt-glaze body which gives excellent fired results. With four different ball clays, and the addition of silica and red iron, we believe we have achieved a perfect relationship between the alumina, silica and red iron, the most important factor in producing a good salt-glaze body. The clay gives a good orange peel effect and a warm fired colour. Ideal for press-moulding, extruding and throwing.
