The clay is a sedimentary rock decomposed aggregates consisting silicates of aluminum hydrated from the decomposition of rock containing feldspar, such as granite. It displays different colorings according to the impurities that it contains, from orange-red to white when it is pure. Clay has plastic properties, which means that when dampened it can be easily shaped. When it dries, it becomes firm, and when subjected to high temperatures chemical reactions appear that cause the clay to become a permanently rigid material, called ceramics. For these properties, the clay is used to make objects of pottery, of daily use or decorative. Different types of clay, when mixed with minerals and under different conditions, are used to produce earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain. Depending on the mineral content of the earth, clay may appear in various colors, from a pale gray to a dark orange-red. A kiln designed specifically for baking clay is called a potter's oven.
