This is Plainsman Raku. It has 18% 35-65 mesh grog, 65% Plainsman A3 buff stoneware clay, 14% Pyrax and 3% bentonite. Throwing it on a pottery wheel affords a better sense of the texture than any other method. Apparent texture is a product of a combination of particulate percentage, the distribution of particle sizes, particle shape and distribution of shapes, particle surface topology and the nature of the clay matrix they exist in.
