Cone 6 oxidation (first image): Lemon Meringue is designed to produce a bright yellow to white variegation depending on application. One coat will produce a bright yellow matte finish with little white variegation. Subsequent coats build a white variegation, muting the yellow.

Cone 10 reduction (second image): Off-white variation darkens.

TIP: Thinned coats produce a bright yellow satin finish. Thick applications will increase white variegation. Brush stroke application is visible in finished results. We recommend applying coats on bisque in different directions (crosshatch). Although finish appears opaque, surface decoration can be easily seen through glaze.

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.

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.
