Hello Fellow Potters,

Does anyone know where I can obtain some Avery kaolin? Where does it come
from and what's the skinny on it?

Tony

Isn't spring the greatest?

Hi Tony

If you find any please let me know.

The last I heard the mine had run out and its no longer available.

I'd love to find and try some, I've seen the results of it and they are
quite wonderful.

I've been using Helmer Kaolin for flashing and it works well either as a
slip or a part of the clay body.

Hi Gari,

What effects do you get and where do you obtain Helmer Kaolin?

Thanks,

Tony

Hi Tony

sorry for the delay, I've been way from the computer.

effects? nice warm flashing in wood fire, browns through oranges to reds
when used as a slip with neph sy 80/ 20 or 85/15

Archie Bray has it, My supplier orders it from them, I also get it at
Georgies whenever I'm down in Portland.

What are you looking at using for.

Gari
