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, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired finish.
Chips shown are fired flat on a white clay body fired to cone 6 oxidation and cone 10 reduction. The choice of clay body, the thickness of glaze application, the firing process, and temperature will affect the fired results.
Cone 6 oxidation : Stoned Denim is a variegated blue glaze that breaks brown.
Cone 10 reduction : Color darkens.
TIP: The thinner the application the more brown the glaze will be. The thicker the application, the more blue the glaze will be. Where the glaze breaks it will be brown.
