glaze demo here

mainly silica - makes glass, metal compounds like copper, iron or cobalt make color.


Mostly in mid-range firing - which we do - con 4-6 - which is good for dishes - we have earth tones, blues and greens, we can add small areas of bright colors like reds with specialty glazes

Make sure your project is bisqued and dust free! Remember no glaze on the base or it will melt to the kiln shelf!!!!
