Hi guys,
Is this clay body suitable throwing functional tableware and firing with stoneware glaze?
Also, is it microwave and dishwasher safe once fired to stoneware temperature?
Thanks,
Alex

Hello, I've never used speckled clay before, but this clay looks too beautiful to not try. Does it require any particular type of firing and does the speckle come through the glaze? Thanks

Just fire the clay as normal in the kiln, the speckle may show through it just depends on how opaque the glaze is.

Hi there, what is the difference between this clay body and the ES90 Flecke Stoneware clay body? Which one would be better for throwing simple tableware? (I am a beginner/improver)

Hi there, ES90 would be more suitable for throwing as it is more plastic.
