Wild Clay Soaking in Water

A sample of wild collected clay soaking down in clean water after being dried and having most of the larger impurities picked out. It will be soaked for a few days and then sieved to remove any remaining bits of vegetation, stones, and coarse sand. The end product will be a workable clay for making ceramic bonsai tree pots. The clay will fire to a reddish brown terracotta colour due to the high iron content.
