Pale Tide By The Sea Reactive Glaze
Description
Pale Tide is a soft coastal Milton Bridge Studio Line 'By the Sea' reactive stoneware glaze, designed to create gentle sea-washed colour, glossy movement and naturally varied fired results. This reactive stoneware glaze develops pale aqua tones with sandy undertones, giving pottery pieces a calm shoreline-inspired finish.
With its delicate tidal colour variation, Pale Tide is ideal for mugs, bowls, vases, planters and textured stoneware where you want a soft but interesting surface. It works especially well on carved, impressed or uneven forms, where the glaze can settle and break to create extra depth.
- Colour & finish: Pale aqua-blue with sandy coastal variation and a glossy reactive finish
- Firing range: Cone 2–6, approx. 1160–1240 °C
- Best for: Coastal pottery, functional stoneware, mugs, bowls, vases, planters and textured ceramics
- Application: Stir well, then apply 2–3 even coats by brush, sponge or stamp, allowing each coat to dry
- Food safety: Food safe when fired to the manufacturer’s recommended temperature
- Size: 550 ml
Please note that Pale Tide has a lower firing range than most colours in the By the Sea collection. Reactive glazes may move during firing, so avoid heavy application near the foot of pots and always test first on your chosen clay body.
Working Notes
For best results, apply evenly to bisque-fired ware and allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next. Reactive glazes can behave differently depending on the surface texture, application thickness and kiln conditions, so testing is strongly recommended before using on larger batches or customer pieces.
Note: Reactive glaze results will vary from piece to piece. Colour movement, breaking, pooling and surface variation are part of the character of this glaze range. Always test first.
