SP960 – Stoneware Black Slip

Casting Slip

FIRING RANGE CONE 4 - 6

Beautiful jet black casting slip that matures at cones 4-5. Good release that accentuates details. Great for slip decoration, vases, and more!

Black stains can off-gas during firing. This causes glazes to bubble, creating surface defects. Make sure to test your glazes! Some produce better finishes than others.

Casting slip is a liquid clay slurry designed to be used in slip casting. Slip casting is a way to exactly reproduce ceramic pieces using a porous plaster mold. During the process, the casting slip is poured into the mold, left for a period of time, and then the excess slip is poured out of the mold. Once opened, the piece can be removed from the mold, and glazed and fired.
