Hi! Friends

Need help. I do a lot of hand building and slip casting. I want to
slip cast with different type of mid to high fire clays. The only
high fire clay available is porcelain. Other clays available
are low fire terracotta and white stoneware.

Are there any suppliers that do high fire slip casting clays ?

it is bright sunny day but the little pond outside my window is
frozen.....
