Technical Details and Application

Painting and Glazing

Refsan underglaze ready-to-use paints are highly compatible with this bisque. For decorative lighting items, high-quality glazes not only provide aesthetic value but also increase the product's thermal resistance.

• Ceramic Application: Fire between 1040°C and 1050°C for a professional, resilient finish.
• Tile (Çini) Application: Traditional tile glazes maturing at 900°C – 920°C can also be used for artisanal and colorful styles.

Decorative Use with Acrylic Paint

• Suitable only for display-oriented decorative projects (no kiln firing required).
• Safety Warning: If finished with acrylic paint, we recommend using LED tealights instead of real candles to prevent heat damage to the paint and surface.
• A protective varnish is recommended post-painting to preserve the artistic design.

Craftsmanship & Material Variations

Fired at 1050°C to reach its sturdy bisque state, each chicken figurine carries the unique marks of artisanal production. Natural variations in thickness, size, or clay tone are hallmarks of handcrafted pottery, ensuring every piece has its own unique character.

Firing Safety & Guidelines

• Surfaces must be thoroughly cleaned of dust and completely dry before glaze application.
• Strictly follow the temperature requirements of the specific glaze type used.
• Perform a test fire to observe how kiln atmosphere influences the final bisque color.
