Flecks + Specks Lilac colored grog

Flecks + Specks Lilac colored grog creates distinct lilac specks after firing, adding decorative texture and a soft pastel accent to ceramic surfaces.

Flecks + Specks Lilac is a colored grog in a soft lilac shade. When added to a clay body, it creates pastel flecks and a speckled surface effect. The size and intensity of the flecks depend on the selected grain size and the amount of grog used. It breaks up plain clay surfaces and gives each piece a distinctive appearance.

Flecks + Specks colored grog

Flecks + Specks colored grog is made from colored clay that is fired, crushed and carefully graded by grain size. Like traditional grog, it can help reduce clay shrinkage and cracking while adding decorative color and texture.

It can be used with porcelain, stoneware, earthenware and casting slip. It is suitable for wheel throwing, handbuilding and slab work. The grog can be wedged into the clay, rolled into the surface or pressed individually into soft clay. Sizes S and M can also be added to properly prepared casting slip.

Flecks + Specks grog is available in our shop in three sizes: S – 40 mesh, M – 30 mesh and L – 20 mesh. Finer grains create smaller specks and a smoother, more refined surface, while size L produces a bolder, more organic texture.

To reveal the colored grains more clearly, the surface can be lightly sponged after trimming. Transparent glazes are recommended, as opaque glazes, slips and underglazes may cover the color of the grog. The product can be fired between 1000°C and approximately 1300°C. Testing is recommended before using it in reduction firings, as some colors may change.

Avoid inhaling dust and use appropriate personal protective equipment when handling the product. Finished pieces may be suitable for food contact when properly covered with a food-safe glaze.
