How to choose pottery and ceramics supplies

First decide whether you will fire your work: kiln-fired clays such as earthenware and stoneware need access to a kiln, while air-dry clay does not. The clay body then dictates which glazes and firing temperatures you can use.

• Earthenware fires at lower temperatures and stays porous unless glazed; stoneware is denser and more durable.
• Check glazes are suitable for food use before decorating mugs or plates.
• Clean dried clay dust with a damp cloth or mop rather than sweeping, to keep fine dust out of the air.
• A basic toolkit of wire cutter, sponge, wooden ribs and loop tools covers hand-building and throwing.
