Usage

Parian Body is perfect for artists and manufacturers aiming to create highly detailed and translucent ceramic pieces. Its self-glazing properties eliminate the need for additional glazing, enhancing its ease of use and final appearance. This clay body is particularly well-suited for casting, providing the ideal material for producing delicate figurines, dolls, and light forms that require a high degree of translucency and fine detail. For best results, mix the casting slip slowly to prevent frothing and ensure a smooth,
consistent mixture. Parian Body offers a blend of historical elegance and modern usability, making it a preferred choice for high-quality ceramic production.
