Jiki

Description

Jiki is our purest porcelain body with white, nearly translucent characteristics. Its clean recipe allows this white porcelain to fire translucent at times while still keeping it's plasticity. Recommended to fire between cone 8 and 10, Jiki responds beautifully in both oxidation and reduction firings. 

Buttery smooth to throw, Jiki is great for the wheel and responds well to hand building if you take the time that porcelains needs.
