Gustav 175 Gr SP 1480 - Artistic Stoneware Glaze (R26036)

SP 1480 - Gustav Artistic Stoneware Glaze

SP 1480 Gustav takes its inspiration from the symbolist painter Gustav Klimt’s gold-leafed, ornamental, and magnificent world. On a rich base dominated by amber, honey, and gold tones, this glaze offers reactive blue and green variegations, creating an aesthetic on ceramic surfaces akin to jewelry craftsmanship. With its high-temperature (1200-1220°C) durability, it adds both an antique spirit and a modern luxury to your forms.

Technical Data and Application

Artistic Character and Visual Effect

The artistic power of the Gustav glaze comes from the reactive interaction of its mineral structure with light:

• Base Texture: Warm earth and honey tones exhibit a dignified presence on the flat areas of the form.
• Reactive Transitions: Turquoise, green, and blue "mosaic" specks appearing where the glaze pools create an artistic depth reminiscent of the geometric patterns in Klimt's paintings.
• Texture Quality: Thanks to its high vitrification rate, it offers a smooth and luxurious finish that invites touch.

Care, Safety, and Storage

• Application Note: The glaze is shipped in a dense form. Adjust the density by adding controlled amounts of water to achieve ideal fluidity for pouring or dipping methods.
• Maintenance: High heat and chemicals in dishwashers may change the artistic effects or glossiness over time; therefore, hand washing is recommended.
• Safety: Use of protective equipment (gloves, apron) is recommended during application.
• Storage: Store airtight and away from direct sunlight. If settling occurs in product that has waited a long time, stir and strain before use.
