  2. A high-fire, white, fine-grained clay known for its strength, translucency, and smooth surface. It is often used for delicate, high-end ceramics and fired at temperatures above 2,300°F.
  3. Cone A small, cone-shaped piece of ceramic material that melts at a specific temperature. Potters use cones to measure the heat inside a kiln and determine when firing is complete.
  4. A low-fire clay that is porous and not as durable as stoneware or porcelain. It is usually glazed to hold liquids and fired at lower temperatures (around 1,830°F to 2,010°F).
  5. Unfired pottery that is completely dry but not yet bisque-fired. This includes pottery at the leather-hard or bone-dry stages.
  6. Pottery that has been fired once but not glazed. The bisque firing strengthens the clay and prepares it for glazing.

  8. Fired and ground-up clay particles added to clay bodies to improve strength, reduce shrinkage, and help with drying. Grog helps prevent cracking during firing.

  1. Hard A stage of drying where the clay is still slightly flexible but firm enough to handle. At this stage, clay can be carved, joined, or trimmed without distorting the shape.
  2. A type of low-fire, porous clay that has a reddish-brown color due to its iron content. It is often used for flower pots, sculptures, and architectural elements.
  3. A flat disk, usually made of wood, plaster, or plastic, that is placed on the wheel or work surface to support clay as it’s thrown or hand-built. Bats make it easier to move pieces without handling them directly.
  4. A glass-like coating applied to pottery that adds color, texture, and makes the piece waterproof. Glazes are applied before the final firing and fuse to the pottery in the kiln.
  5. A technique where the surface of the clay is scratched or roughened before joining it to another piece. This ensures a stronger bond when using slip.
  6. The act of shaping clay on a potter’s wheel. The term “throwing” refers to the process of forming the clay as it spins on the wheel using hand techniques. (You “throw a pot on a wheel.”)
  7. The process of kneading clay to remove air bubbles and ensure uniform texture and moisture. This helps prevent cracking and warping during drying and firing.
  8. A high-fire, durable clay that is non-porous and often used for functional ware like dishes and mugs. Fired at temperatures around 2,100°F to 2,400°F, stoneware is stronger than earthenware.
