Cone 6 oxidation (first image): SW-121 Smoke is an opaque grey-blue stoneware glaze with soft, subtle variegating hues. Application thickness strongly influences the fired color; surface texture will also produce variegation during the firing.
Cone 10 reduction (smaller image): Color changes to a variegated sage green with a glossy finish.
TIP: One coat creates a blue-grey haze over a weathered brown; two coats intensify the grey cast while three coats intensify the overall grey-blue opaque finish. Brown breaks on raised surfaces on the body.
One of the most distinctive traits of Mayco’s Stoneware is that the glazes provide consistent performance and intriguing visual interest. They are best known for being receptive and favourable to the user during both application and firing. Mayco Stoneware glazes are friendly to the user in application, layering and firing. Many glazes will break over textures, revealing secondary colors and shades. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired results.
