Is this pure iron oxide, or does it have something else mixed in?

Is it possible to add these oxides to the clay directly to colour the clay, instead of adding stains? If so what percentage by weight would you add to the (say bone dry) clay body?

Hi, you can however you will get better results using stain. Using oxides to colour clay bodies can result in volatile glaze reactions down the line. I would suggest experimenting at ~1% if you still want to try it. Hope this helps!
