Axner Colored Porcelain
Most potters are familiar
with polymer blends such as Cernit, Fimo or Sculpy. These plastic products
form in ways that are similar to clay, but they are actually made of plastic
and bake in the oven.
Compared to these products, Axner Colored Porcelain has many advantages:
- Real colored clay and therefore has the true look and feel of real
clay
- Infinitely more durable than polymer blends
- Dramatically less expensive than polymer blends
- Particularly well suited for small sculptures or ceramic jewelry
Although it can be fired to lower temperatures (cone 06 for example), the
colors become much more vibrant as you go hotter. Cone 6 is ideal as demonstrated
in the photos below. The fired clays look great either un-glazed or with
a clear glaze coating.
The following
works were made using Axner's Colored Porcelain Clays:
