New Bright White

Tucker’s New Bright White Porcelain is a very popular clay body and it is our whitest cone 6 porcelain. Glaze results will be the purest and most brilliant version of itself. It employs a combination of plastic kaolins to produce a very workable, clean white body. This clay body is mainly used for throwing but it is perfectly suitable for hand building medium size pieces. This clay fires very white.

The New Bright White is the replacement for the Bright White which we have manufactured for many years. One of the important ingredients in Bright White was EPK which is not currently available and we have no indication if and when it will be available in the future. We have adjusted the recipe using a combination of domestic and European kaolins to create a clay body that we feel is even nicer to use and which fires as white as the Bright White.

The New Bright White has a very smooth buttery feel and is very easy to throw. It is a pleasure to trim and no extra care is needed for drying. It is excellent for pulling and attaching handles. Hand builders will find The New Bright White to be perfect for slab, coil pots and pinch pots.
