Pistachio is a light green underglaze that retains color from cone 05 up to cone 6 with minimal darkening. Above cone 6 the color becomes slightly bluer. Clear glaze brightens the color. Pistachio underglaze can be used with zinc or non-zinc glazes without color shift.

Saturated color, dependability, and versatility make Velvets as popular for professionals as they are for children. Velvets fire true-to-color as a Cone 05/06 underglaze or fired to Cone 6. Some colors remain true as high as Cone 10.

Try two finish possibilities: When left unglazed these colors have the rich textural appearance of velvet; when covered with AMACO Clear Transparent Matte or Clear Gloss they intensify in color. Can be easily applied to wet clay, greenware, or mature Cone 04 bisque (1971F / 1077C)
