Copper Wash fires to a warm metallic finish that breaks green over texture. When used in combination, Copper Wash will add some green variation and movement to the glaze(s). The amount of mobility produced when using Copper Wash in combination is dependent upon how much of each product was applied; how many coats of each; and the performance of the glaze it is being paired with. For example, layering...

Manganese Wash fires to a warm metallic finish that breaks brown over texture. When used in combination, Manganese Wash will add some brown variation and movement to the glaze(s). The amount of mobility produced when using Manganese Wash in combination is dependent upon how much of each product was applied; how many coats of each and how many different products are being used; and the performance of...

Stoneware matte glazes range from solid shades to those that create interesting color variations as they move and break. Application thinkness is the key to making mattes work for you. Cone 6: Alabaster is a semi-opaque white soft matte glaze that breaks over texture. Cone 10: Color darkens to variegated light gray/purple. TIP: When using this glaze, you will be able to pick up the characteristics...

Cone 6 oxidation (larger image): Antique Brass is a soft matte, metallic brass glaze that breaks charcoal. Cone 10 reduction (smaller image): Brass finish becomes brighter and more metallic. Increased movement. Note: Not recommended for dinnerware due to surface durability. 473ml

Stoneware matte glazes range from solid shades to those that create interesting color variations as they move and break. Application thinkness is the key to making mattes work for you. Cone 6 oxidation (larger image): Black Matte is formulated to produce a smooth matte surface. Light coats will allow clay body characteristics to appear through the glaze (especially on dark and speckled clay bodies). Cone...

Stoneware crystal glazes are designed to expand upon the surface with dazzling bursts of color. Fired results will vary based on ware’s orientation. Crystals will settle to the bottom of the jar and will need a good mixing prior to initial use. Re-stir between each coat. Stir with palette knife or other unpainted tool. Avoid placing crystals near the bottom third of a vertical piece as they may...

Cone 6: Copper Float glaze is a rich and complex midrange glaze with hues varying from reds, to coppers to gun metal blacks. Predominate coloration is a dark rusty red. The surface is satin-matte when fired to cone 5 or 6. Cone 10: Finish flattens. Color changes to a warm brown with some copper mottling. TIP: One coat will produce dark, greenish tones, thicker coats will add greens. Thickest...

Cone 6 oxidation (large photo): Geologically inspired with mottled earth tones, Fossil Rock is an opaque, tan, matte glaze that breaks over texture. Cone 10 reduction (small photo): Glaze shifts ivory with soft gray and warm brown marbling. Breaks slate gray over texture. Glaze remains stable. TIP: This glaze is generally stable at 3 coats. Additional coats or increased application thickness...

Stoneware classic glazes offer the depth, sophistication and reliability to artists working from mid-range to high-fire temperatures. Many glazes will break over textures, revealing secondary colors and shades. Used alone, stoneware glazes produce beautiful color variations. One coat will allow the clay body to show through the glaze and two to three coats deeper the color. The choice of clay body,...

Magma was developed to create a rough, cratered surface. The thicker the application, the more textured the surface will be. Magma can be directly applied to bisqueware or in combination with other mid-range glazes. The amount of dimension and cratering created with these glazes is directly a result of how thick the glaze is applied. A thinner application will produce a less dimensional surface with...

Flux is a flowing glaze developed for use with other stoneware glazes to enhance the movement, promote reactions and interesting effects. Apply 2-3 coats of Flux under or over another mid-range glaze to bring about “hidden colors”. Flux can be brushed in layers, glaze trailed, plopped with a brush, and blotted with a sponge. The thicker the application, the more mobility there will be. Cone...
