CONING - Clay.
ca: PASTÓ - Argila.
es: PELLA - Arcilla.
Coning is placing a well wedged lump of clay firmly on a wheel in preparation for first centering it and then throwing. It is known as a cone until the clay that has been centered starts to form a selected piece. This method is used for throwing small products such as lids and very small bowls, As the wheel is turned they are formed at the top of a cone and then sliced off.
