Working with Natural ceramic clay There are endless possibilities. Ceramic clay can be kneaded, rolled, sculpted and washed. It can be designed from a massive block of clay or built from parts. Clay can be used for plaster molds for casting and even as liquid clay in casting a mold. During the work with clay, it should be moistened with water as needed in order to prevent drying and cracks.
