SP 1474 Michel - Artistic High-Fire Glaze

SP 1474 Michel is a glossy and reactive high-fire glaze that creates brown mineral speckles with blue and gray variegated transitions over a light sage green base. Its fluid character allows the glaze to pool in recessed areas, creating a dynamic appearance reminiscent of natural stone, lichen, and aged surfaces.

Food Safety: This glaze is suitable for use on ceramic surfaces that come into contact with food. Due to its fluid character, application thickness should be carefully controlled, and sufficient unglazed space should be left near the base of vertical forms.

Application Notes

  • Base character: Brown mineral speckles develop over the light sage green base, creating a natural and aged surface appearance.
  • Fluid variegation: The glaze may pool in recessed areas, creating pronounced blue and gray variegated transitions.
  • Brush application: Applying 2-3 coats is recommended for a rich and dynamic surface. Allow the surface to dry between coats.
  • Thickness control: Thicker applications intensify the effects but also increase the tendency to run. Sufficient safety clearance should be left near the bottom of the piece.
  • Dipping and pouring: Depending on the desired application consistency, 5-10% water may be added in a controlled manner.
  • Clay body selection: Green, blue, and gray transitions appear more pronounced on white and light-colored stoneware clay bodies. Dark and grogged clay bodies may produce more rustic results.
Important Recommendation: Michel is a fluid and reactive glaze. Its appearance may vary depending on application thickness, clay body, kiln atmosphere, and cooling rate. Testing on both vertical and horizontal test tiles is recommended before full-scale application.
