Colour in Glazes teaches you all the methods for achieving colour in glazes, focusing on colouring oxides in detail, including the newly available rare earth oxides. Find out about the types of base glazes and the fluxes used to make them in relation to colour response as well as using colouring oxides to achieve depth and variety of colour, rather than resorting to commercial ceramic stains.
Discover the practical aspects of mixing, applying, testing and
adjusting glazes, and explore a large section of test tiles and glaze
recipes for use on white earthenware, stoneware and porcelain fired in
electric, gas and salt kilns.
This new edition, fully updated
and revised, contains advances in technology and new discoveries in the
Periodic Table. It is an infallible handbook to achieving the colour you
want, and to help you broaden your palette.
