Well......caught me on this one, which isn't hard! I wrote it down in my notes
in one of many notebooks and I simply don't remember, and I really don't want
to guess. However, what I DO remember is that Redart clay was a very adequate
substitute and worked beautifully. In the meantime, I think I will look
through my notes for the origins of Lizella clay......
