- Leather Hard - Clay which has dried sufficiently to be stiff, but is still damp enough to be joined to other pieces.
- Bone Dry - Clay that is completely dried but not yet fired. Clay forms are most fragile at this stage.
It is important to connect slab work or trim pottery on the wheel when clay is leather hard so that it is damp enough to connect, but still keeps its shape when you touch it.
