Two more high-fire clays are now available on my online store<\/a>: Dark Champagne Bronze and Friendly Rose Bronze.<\/p>\n

Both Clays are “Friendly” in the sense that they can be fired successfully in one phase only. They are additions to the One-fire Sampler of Champagne Bronze, Friendly Copper, and Low-shrinkage Steel XT<\/em>. They can be fired on their own or combined with the One-fire Sampler clays and with White Satin in one piece and fired at the same firing schedule.<\/p>\n

Dark Champagne Bronze is darker than Champagne Bronze and similar in color to Quick-fire Bronze. Here is a color comparison:<\/p>\n
