Iceberg Blue Amaco Velvet Underglaze V328
Description
Iceberg Blue Velvet Underglaze is a light blue color that is powder blue at cone 05, slightly darker at cone 5, and maintains its light blue shade up to cone 10. A clear glaze over Iceberg Blue tends to lift the color out slightly, lightening it.
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
