west coast porcelain

Has anyone heard of a clay supplier who carries Limoges porcelain on
the west coast? Or is it still just available in Europe and Australia?

We are currently using Frost, and can order Southern Ice. But we lust
to sink our fingers into the smooth, silky Limoges, just once. Of
course, then we wouldn't want to quit, most likely...

Thanks,
Rita

In a recent workshop, Frank Boyden from Oregon, spoke about using Limoges porcelain. I can't remember for sure how he gets it. He has to go through another country as he said the French will not sell it to him. Frank is not a computer user, so I don't know how you can contact him. He is doing some shows with Tom Coleman, so that might be a way. Or do a search on him and maybe one of the galleries he is in can give you contact info.
