Mayco Stoneware Wrought Iron Brush-on Glaze

Mayco Stoneware Wrought Iron Brush-on Glaze

SKU: MSW111

Mayco’s SW-111 Wrought Iron Brush-on Glaze creates an intermittent, dappled black gloss-matte finish that is reminiscent of high fire oil-spot glazes. Typically, oil-spot glazes are thickly applied and require some reduction during the firing to achieve the oil-matte effects; Wrought Iron does the job with just two coats in a cone 6 oxidation firing cone 6. Cone 10 reduction: Colour changes to a dark metallic grey. The thinner the application the browner the glaze. The thicker the application the blacker the glaze. This glaze is not completely matte but will have a matte finish with variation of gloss. Due to the high manganese content, there is a chance of bubbling on a speckled clay body.

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 colours and shades. Used alone, stoneware glazes produce beautiful colour variations. One coat will allow the clay body to show through the glaze and two to three coats deeper the colour. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired finish.

Good to know:

  • Mayco's Stoneware glazes are formulated to be friendly to the user in application and firing.
  • Non-toxic (lead-free)– Perfect for tableware. Please follow manufacturer instructions.
  • Designed to fire to cone 6 (approx. 1230°C.)
  • Successfully used at cone 10, oxidation or reduction
  • Glazes will move to create interest and visual appeal without running off your ware and ruining your kiln shelves.
  • They work well with each and other Mayco glazes, providing endless opportunities to combine and layer to create intriguing visual effects.
