High fire black body with 40% fine grog 0-0.5 mm. Formulated for artistic ceramics, it is ideal for sculpture. The high content of grog confers a beautiful textured surface and an excellent behaviour during drying and firing. Its beautiful and intense black firing colour in oxidising atmosphere is very exclusive of PRN range and becomes an ideal artistic mean of expression. In reducing atmosphere, metallic effects with shades of blue are obtained. Available in extruded body (moist form).
