Description 

Stoneware glaze for dipping. Fires between 1200 °C and 1260°C (cone 5 to 10). Can be sprayed and used for oxidation, reduction, among others. Since clays can vary and have different properties, we recommend testing the glaze on a small piece of the clay you intend to use. The bag contains powder to be mixed with water according to the instructions. Not food safe.

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 deepen the color. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process, and temperature will affect the fired finish.

Information 

Cone 6 oxidation (larger image): Mirror Black creates a highly reflective, metallic black gloss finish. On some vertical surfaces and around surface textures, minor matte effects can be seen; all other applications result in the formation of a black, metallic mirror.

Cone 10 reduction (smaller image): Finish flattens. Color remains. Increased movement.

Tip: This glaze WILL move. Take care when using on vertical pieces – reduce glaze thickness towards the bottom third to minimize run-off.

Note: Not recommended for dinnerware due to surface durability.

Safety 

Can be irritating, harmful to health, and environmentally hazardous.
