Product Information:
- Above Rocks'' glazed with Stone Texture glazes by Carolina
Pedrazza.:
- The ST glaze series produce a weathered and worn out look
on high relief areas or an antique-like finish on textured
surfaces.
Cone 05. These glazes have a smooth, unique stone-like
surface when fired over a Cone 04 bisque. The ST glaze series
flows a little in the firing, settling in the crevices and
towards the bottom of a vertical surface. Therefore, when
applied over a textured surface they will produce antique-like
variations or a weathered and worn out look on the higher
relief areas of the piece. Because they move slightly, care
should be taken to taper down the glaze application towards
the bottom of the piece so that the piece will not stick to
the kiln shelf during firing.
Amaco Stone Texture glazes are available in liquid,
ready-to-use form in pint jars.
These glazes can be used over any AMACOŽ earthenware clay. When
applied over Indian Red Clay No. 67, the clay color showing
through the high relief contrasts and blends with the glaze color
and the entire piece is enriched by the warm undertones.
AMACOŽ Stone Texture glazes are best applied over Cone 04
bisque. The recommended firing temperature is Cone 05 (1911°F,
1044°C), however they can be fired lower to Cone 06 (1855°F,
1013°C) or higher to Cone 04 (1971°F, 1077°C) to produce different
effects. Do not be afraid to experiment. AMACOŽ Stone Texture
glazes can also be used by applying them over or under other
glazes like the LF, F, or DG series or within their own series.
