KERAMIC STUDIO 
This glaze may be applied upon the unburned clay. If it 
does not agree in shrinkage with the particular clay chosen 
the kaolin maj^ be decreased or a little ball clay may be sub- 
stituted for some of the kaolin. Ball clay shrinks more than 
kaolin. 
If the ware be first burned the claj' will be a disadvantage 
as tending to cause the glaze to crack. In that case the kaolin 
should be first calcined and then ground and a little mucilage 
should be added to the glaze. The glaze is designed to stand a 
reducing fire for it is this fire which imparts the pleasing tones 
to the gres. 
The clays mentioned above maj^ be procured in quantities, 
not less than a barrel, from Mr. W. H. Cutter, AVoodbridge, N.J. 
and Messrs. H. C. Perrine & Sons, South Amboy, N. J. They 
go by the name of stoneware claj^s. Those residing in the 
West can find abundance of similar clays in Ohio and Colorado.
