Collection: Laguna Glazes

At age 7, Jon Brooks developed his own clay formulas and by age 9 was throwing and selling his own sculptures. In 1976, Brooks began Laguna which has since grown into a successful ceramic company that offers a wide selection of materials, equipment, and supplies.

Laguna now offers over 200 different clay bodies plus individual recipes for specific projects. These bodies range from low and high fired clay to stoneware and are great for wheel throwing or hand building.

Being one of the largest producers of glazes for artists, manufactures, and schools, Laguna can also customize glaze colors to suit the creative whims of artists. Be impressed by the Mystic Glazes which shimmer and dazzle on both art and functional ware. Or dip your ware in any of the beautiful Dry Raku glazes that offer different results from one firing to the next.
