Zam Super Body is our most trusted pre-mixed clay, having a wide appeal to potters of any experience levels. This exclusive blend of ceramic raw materials, along with premier-quality small, medium, and coarse clays results in a beautiful color with superior handling qualities for use on the potter’s wheel and hand building. This clay body formula has a long history of success in reduction and oxidation kilns, and it has been developed to work well in producing functional pottery and sculpture while fitting a wide range of glazes.
It is unusual for a clay body to work well in wide temperature ranges (cone 6 to cone 10) but this unique formula performs. In reduction firing conditions, Zam Super Body is a light to medium brown color. In oxidation atmospheres it fires to a soft warm oak yellow color. Zam Super Body can be used in salt/soda and wood firing kilns (that’s why it’s named Zam Super Body).
