Arctic Blush Amaco Kiln Ice Glaze
Description
KI-18 Arctic Blush is a pastel pink glaze, with a delicate, milky quality.
The Kiln Ice glazes are modeled after traditional Guan or Snowflake glazes. They feature a delicate network of fine hairline cracks (known as “crazing”). Kiln Ice glazes are translucent, but become slightly opaque where the cracks form, creating a beautiful, multi-layered visual texture. Differences in glaze application and firing technique may affect end results.
These glazes are food safe, but due to durability, they are not recommended for food surfaces. Due to variations in raw materials used during manufacturing, we recommend firing glazed test tiles before using each new batch number of glaze.
Working Notes
Larger flakes with more depth appear with a heavy application as pictured.
Glaze application and firing program can influence results, it is advised to test.
Health & Safety
Manufacturers Recommendations: Dinnerware Safe indicates the fired glaze surface meets the FDA standards for food safe, the fired surface is free of surface texture that could potentially trap bacterial, and the fired surface is chemically durable. Please note, dinnerware safety is not defined by cutlery scratches. Finished ware producers bear responsibility for dinnerware safe testing their ware being sold into commerce.
We at Bath Potters will quote the manufacturers recommendations, but if you intend to make ceramic dinnerware with selling in mind, then you would be best advised to get your wares tested.
