Stoneware clay: suppliers compared on printed prices
Stoneware is the body most studios buy by the pallet and the one worth pricing carefully, because the difference between suppliers on the same body is larger than most potters expect. Two suppliers in this index sell Draycott White Stoneware under the same manufacturer code, 157-1143, and their printed prices for a 12.5 kg bag differ by about a fifth. The dearer of the two is the company that makes it. Each supplier below is linked to its own live stoneware page with the printed price, the unit it was converted from and the firing range beside it.

Choosing a stoneware supplier
Compare the same body, not the same word. Stoneware covers everything from a smooth white throwing body to a heavily grogged crank, and a cheap bag of the wrong one throws badly and cracks in the drying. Where two suppliers list the same manufacturer code, that is the only clean comparison on the shelf.
Convert to a price per kilogram yourself, or read it here. One supplier prints a per-kilogram figure for every bag size, one prints a bag price excluding tax, one prints a table of bag quantities, and one prints a single-kilogram price that looks like a bag rate and is roughly three times it.
Price the carriage in the same breath. A 12.5 kg bag is heavy and a delivery charge that would be trivial on a box of glaze is a large fraction of the order here. Two or three bags at once usually costs little more to deliver than one.
Buy the dust control with the first bag. Dry and powdered bodies are respirable crystalline silica; the wet bag is not the hazard, the sweeping and the sanding are.
