Welcome to our United States store. We ship to the entire country.
Made with 100% Organic and Natural Clay. It is a unique product that we have handled for decades that results in a white-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 white color, it must be burned at a temperature of 1050 degrees Celsius. If left to dry in the air for a few days, it will turn grey. The clay has a high plasticity to make figures of a recommended size of up to 40 centimetres. It takes on a medium hardness when dried. To reach its maximum hardness, it must be baked.
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 moisture. It is recommended that once the bag is opened, add a little water before closing it again.
It is ideal for modelling, 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 environment, the figures can be decorated later with paints such as watercolours. 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. This allows you to make pieces such as glasses or plates without any problem. It can be used using the turning, pressing and hand-made techniques.
The product is suitable for children over 3 years of age, always under the supervision of an adult since small pieces could be swallowed and cause some kind of problem such as suffocation, like any modelling clay or toy.
