Moist Clay Bodies

We carry a wide range of clay bodies at our Supply Store including Campbell's, Standard, Aardvark, and Highwater clays.  John, our Store Manager, does a great job keeping us in stock, but please understand that supplier shortages can hinder our ability to have the clay on-hand.  Also, we occasionally have a single potter buy our entire stock of their favorite clay.  So if you want to make sure, just give John a call.
