"Very impressed with this clay. I’ve not properly thrown for many years, recently got a wheel at home. Smooth very tolerant clay throwing 2kg. It’s put up with my mistakes, my corrections and over faffing about and genuinely helped my improve and get my hand back in - very forgiving - looking forward to firing some pieces and seeing how it glazes - plus ordered 2 more bags "
