The Creatistics Air Dry Ceramic Clay White – 1kg is a soft, pliable clay designed to spark creativity and support skill development through sculptural art. Children can easily knead and shape this fine quality, air-drying clay to create name plaques, mini sculptures, animals, or class-themed projects. Once exposed to air, the clay hardens in 24 hours without shrinking or cracking, resulting in a smooth surface ideal for decorating with paint, markers, or varnish.
This white clay can also be used with a pottery wheel and fired in a kiln (under adult supervision) at 1100°C – 1200°C (2012°F – 2192°F) to transform into porcelain. Students can apply porcelain paints to add vibrant detail and then varnish their work for a finished touch. Whether used for artistic exploration, sensory play, or cross-curricular activities, this clay promotes hand-eye coordination, concentration, and fine motor development. The white colour offers a neutral base, enhancing painted effects once dried or fired.
Store leftover clay in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out. If clay becomes too dry while in use, a small amount of water will help restore pliability. This allergen-free clay is with an approximate shelf life of 1.5 years.
