ABSTRACT
This research was experimental in approach. It went through the process of gathering of materials from different locations, iron filings from Buniyaminu Engineering workshop at Randa Kano area in Zaria, Kaduna State, Kankara kaolin from Kankara in Katsina State while ball clay was obtained from Bomo village in Zaria, Kaduna State. The materials were processed for workability, iron filings were subjected to sieve analyses into three aggregate sizes of 1.18mm, 600μm, and 300μm. Kaolin and ball clay were soaked in 50/50 percentage in water for two weeks after which they were blunged together and sieved. Iron filings of the three aggregate sizes and the un-sieved were blended into clay in varying percentages in form of test slabs, while four other slabs without iron filings were made to serve as control. Throwing test was carried out to check the throwing ability of the clay with iron filings. Test Firing was carried out between 800oC - 1100oC to determine the suitable temperature that enhanced favourably on speckle effects of iron filings on clay body. The results showed that it was possible to throw wares from clay containing iron filings. The body with iron filings shrank less as compares to the body without iron filings. The firing temperature of 1000 was found most suitable for achieving the most speckle effects of iron filings in clay body.
