Made with 100% Organic and Natural Clay. It is a unique product that we have handled for decades that results in a Coral-colored fired ceramic. This is through a unique mixture of national and imported clays of the highest quality to create this unique product that we handle at Tierra de Barro.

To obtain the coral color, it must be fired at a temperature of 1050 degrees Celsius. If left to dry in the air for a few days it will turn greenish brown. The clay has a high plasticity to make figures of recommended format up to 40 centimeters. It takes on a medium hardness when dried. To reach its maximum hardness it must be baked. It is not a ceramic for kitchen utensils such as casseroles since it does not resist direct fire as a finished product.

The clay comes kneaded by hand, ready to model and of spectacular quality. The product comes very soft for better malleability. If a firmer consistency is required, it must be left to dry for a while until it takes on the required hardness. When the product comes kneaded, it is important that it maintains its humidity. It is recommended that once the bag is opened, add a little water before closing it again.

It is ideal for modeling, although our clients also give it various uses and applications. From sculptures to crafts such as school use, workshops, rehabilitation, among others. If you choose to dry it in the open air, the figures can be decorated later with paints such as watercolors. It was designed to measure for great artists as a top quality clay. Once you try it you will not want to stop using it for your ceramics.

Our products are not toxic, which allows you to make pieces such as glasses or plates without any problem. It can be used using the pressing technique and by hand. Turning is not recommended due to the thickness of the clay.

The product is suitable for children over 3 years old, always under the supervision of an adult since small pieces could be ingested and could cause some affectation such as asphyxiation like any clay or toy.
