Orton Cone Charts

Orton Cone Charts are used in ceramic art and pottery to determine the firing temperature of different types of clay and glazes. They help potters and ceramic artists achieve consistent and desired results in terms of hardness, texture, and color of the clay or glaze after firing. The charts provide a visual representation of different cone numbers, which indicate specific temperature ranges for successful firing. By referring to an Orton Cone Chart, artists can select the appropriate cone to achieve their desired results.
