Information from Stone Leaf Pottery:
B3 Brown is such a deep brown it’s nearly black, which is why we think it’s perfect for October’s special! Known for its rich color and reliable stability, this mid-fire clay is a studio favorite—and now it’s discounted for the month. Whether you’re handbuilding, throwing, or brewing up new fall creations, B3 Brown can bring your pieces to life. With its medium grit, this clay can hold up the largest pieces, or it can be used to create small, delicate detail with its plasticity. We love throwing with it on the wheel, but if you’re interested in sculpting, it can handle your wildest creations! Sink your hands into this spooktacular deal and grab a bag next time you’re in!
