Amethyst Velvet Underglaze V381
Description
Amethyst Velvet Underglaze is a deep grape color that is vivid at cone 05, darkens at cone 5, and becomes a deep violet that begins to fade slightly at cone 10. A clear glaze deepens the color of the underglaze significantly at any temperature.
Amaco Lead-Free Velvet Underglazes can be used with or without glaze. When left unglazed, they will assume the rich textural appearance of velvet. When glazed with transparent matte glaze, they take on a soft, satin finish. Colors will intensify when covered with a clear transparent gloss glaze but will lose their matte surface quality.
The underglazes fire true to color from the pot and can be easily applied to wet clay, greenware, or mature Cone 04 bisque . To shade, tint, or customize the color of these underglazes, simply mix them with other colors. Velvets have a wide firing range 1040°C - 1220°C. Some of these underglazes have also been successfully fired to 1305°C (Cone 10).
Working Notes
