Axner Super Premium Clay: Raku Clays

Axner Raku Clays are listed in the cone 06 - 04 category, which is approximately the range in which Raku takes place. However, all Axner Raku Clays will tolerate higher temperature, up to cone 10 in some instances. Raku clays are formulated to withstand the thermal-shock of a raku firing. They are typically heavily grogged.
The following works were made using Axner's Raku Clays:
