Sagger: a Fireclay Box Moulded Round a Wooden Mould (Bourry, 1911)
The kiln box that shields ware from flame and soot: a fireclay-and-grog slab beaten flat, rolled round a wooden mould for the wall, joined to a slab bottom by hand, then dried and burned. Saggers stack in piles with wads of soft fireclay between.
Usually oval, sometimes square or rectangular; size to suit the ware.

Beat out the slabs
Dust a table with grog and fix four rules on it as thick as the slab. Mould slabs of the body by hand between them, firm enough to be shaped roughly by striking with a wooden bat, then smooth them.
