Technical Details and Applications

Painting and Glazing

• Ceramic glazing : Ceramic glazes typically mature between 1040°C and 1050°C, creating a smooth and durable surface.
• Tile glazing : Tile glazes are fired between 900°C and 920°C, providing thin and decorative finishes.

Firing

The products are carefully fired at 1050°C and delivered in ceramic bisque form. Variations in firing temperature and duration may influence the final surface appearance.

Acrylic Paint (Decorative Use)

• Acrylic paint can be used for decorative purposes without kiln firing.
• Attention : Not suitable for food contact.

Handcrafted Production and Important Information

Possible Variations

Products manufactured by casting or shaping techniques may show small variations in thickness, dimensions, and tone. These differences reflect the handcrafted nature of the product and make each piece unique.

Natural color variations may occur depending on the type of clay used.

Product Durability

Glazing and firing significantly increase the durability of the product. Decorations made with acrylic paints are more sensitive to wear and are recommended primarily for decorative use.

Important Notes During Firing and Glazing

• Clean the product and ensure it is completely dry before glazing.
• Follow the correct firing temperatures according to the glaze type used.
• Apply varnish after acrylic painting to protect against external factors.
• Since firing temperature may affect the bisque tone, preliminary test firings are recommended.
