NEWS FROM THE STUDIO

Amaco "Potter's Choice" or "Celadon" Glazes with Mayco Stoneware or Stroke and Coat

Catherine Dale

I always test glazes prior to using them on my work.  Many times, a glaze test can inspire the making of a piece which suits how the glazes perform.  Here I have tested how Amaco and Mayco glazes "play" with each other.  The test tiles are either Tucker's Bright White clay or Plainsman P300 clay bisque-fired to cone 04 and glaze-fired to cone 5 with no hold.  Each glaze has been applied with a brush, three coats each.  The top of the tile is the first glaze listed in the description and the second one is at the bottom of the tile.  The area in the middle of each tile is where the two glazes interface.
