HMM wonder if funeral homes would sell it? Or maybe rendering plants?

What they sell as Bone Ash is really a synthetic, but works OK for most
glazes.
Real Bone ash is hard to locate. If anyone knows of a source, please
post it on Clayart.

Hi Bill,
Visit you local pet crematorium. You may have to grind and sieve, but it =

will be real.

Dear Bill and other bone ash lovers;
I used to get 'real' bone ash from Georgies in Portland OR and the bag =3D
said Kodak. I guess they use it in making film emulsions; however, with =3D
the domination of digital imaging, perhaps the film production has =3D
nearly halted?
Cheers, Hank=3D

Just learned this past weekend in a workshop by Sandy Miller that REAL
bone ash is available from Columbus Clay.

You used to be able to get real bone ash at garden supply stores to be used
as a fertilizer. Has that source dried up?

Hello all,
At Bill Merrill's request:
Last time I purchased Natural Bone ash, US pigment had it at the same price
as the TCP, which they also sell. It is still listed on their price list.

Nice company!
Happy glazing,
Robert Klander
