Makes excellent terracotta warriors, and can confirm - it does indeed work with sorcery to bring to life! Already got my reanimated army constructing and it’s only been a few days.

This stoneware clay is truly amazing in that it’s as white and smooth as porcelain. It is more smooth, and less gritty than B-Mix and Loafer’s Glory, which makes it excellent for the extremely detailed carving I do. Both of the tiny pots in my pictures were actually carved AFTER the clay was fired to 08. The only down side of the clay is that it has these little black impurities in the clay that I thought would fire out, but some did not. (As you can see in the last picture.) Next time I use the clay, I will wedge it better and pick out the black spots before firing, especially if I don’t plan to paint the pot with underglaze. Overall, I give the clay a huge thumbs up because I have never seen such a beautiful white stoneware that carves this well!!

I've made a couple things but I'm still learning but it air dries and bakes

We used this on our at home clay wheel. We put it in the oven at home as directed online for mid high fire stone clay and it worked.

I'm no professional ceramist, but my throwing chops are steadily improving. My go-to clay has been Laguna BMix; which was recommended to me and I think is incredibly good for hand-building, slab work, etc. However, my assumptions were confirmed that it seems abnormally difficult to use on the wheel now that I've used this Deouss clay. Granted, I've only been able to throw 2.5 lbs once... But it was so much easier to use that it wasn't a wishful, hopeful mind-trick that I played on myself-- it was just that obvious that this is a better clay to throw. Centering, coning, pulling, and forming happened faster, easier, and I ended up with a decent angular vase that I will end up trimming, firing, and glazing. Oh, I also lost less clay in the process. And just as notable, I needed literally a fraction of the water compared to the BMix. After reading a few comments before I made my purchase, it has to be said that my 5 lbs. showed up DOUBLE-wrapped. The clay was nowhere close to being overly dry out of the box. I am most definitely buying more sooner than later.
