C-1661 Deep Sea - Artistic High-Fire Glaze

Technical Data and Application

Color Pairing Suggestions

Deep Sea's blue-green transitions and dark undertones can be paired with the following colors:

Application Notes

• Brush application: Apply 2-3 coats to develop flowing and speckled color transitions. Apply each coat in a different direction and allow the surface to dry completely between coats.
• Layer effect: Blue tones may intensify in areas with thicker application. In thinner areas, green transitions and near-black dark undertones may become more pronounced.
• Clay body selection: The contrast between blue-green transitions and darker areas may appear more clearly on white and cream-colored high-fire clay bodies.
• Reactive character: Color distribution and the flowing surface effect may vary depending on firing temperature, kiln atmosphere, hold time, and cooling rate.
• Surface form: Wheel-thrown rings, recessed areas, and textured details may cause the glaze to accumulate at different thicknesses, making the color transitions more pronounced.
• Preparation: Shake and mix the glaze thoroughly before use to ensure an even distribution of pigments and effect-forming components.
