Technical Details and Application

Painting and Glazing

Refsan underglaze ready-to-use paints are highly compatible with the Lina bisque. For daily kitchenware use, ensuring a lead-free, non-porous glazed finish is essential for hygiene and durability.

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

Decorative Use with Acrylic Paint

• Suitable only for display-oriented decorative projects (no kiln firing required).
• Safety Warning: Acrylic-finished cups are not food-safe. Do not use for drinking if finished with acrylics.
• A protective varnish is recommended post-painting to maintain the artistic integrity.

Craftsmanship & Material Variations

Fired at 1050°C to reach its sturdy bisque state, each Lina cup carries the unique marks of handcrafted production. Natural variations in thickness, size, or clay tone are hallmarks of authentic pottery, ensuring every piece has its own 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 used.
• Perform a test fire to observe how kiln variations influence the final bisque color.
