Raku Clay

Raku clay is made to handle the rapid temperature changes that come with traditional raku firing. This collection includes clay bodies with strong grog content that give your pieces extra support during heating and cooling. Each clay offers a textured feel that responds well to handbuilding, shaping, and expressive surface work. Explore the selection and find raku clays that fit your firing style.

Our raku clays offer dependable strength and thermal shock resistance that help your pieces survive dramatic firing cycles. Potters use these clay bodies for bold forms, sculptural pieces, and work that highlights crackle glazes and smoky raku finishes. The grog content makes shaping easier and adds stability, especially when building thicker walls or larger pieces. Each clay body responds well to carving, slip decoration, and textured designs that show beautifully after firing. These clays also dry evenly and resist cracking, which gives you more control during the making process. Browse the collection and find raku clays that support creative experimentation and expressive firing results.
