Ceramingo SG 1512 Jade - Artistic Crystalline High-Fire Glaze (R22532)

SG 1512 Jade - Ceramingo Artistic Crystalline High-Fire Glaze

SG 1512 Jade is an artistic crystalline high-fire glaze that brings the refreshing green tones and natural crystalline texture of jade to pottery surfaces. Whitish effects and a dimensional crystalline appearance developing over a light green base give every piece a distinctive and balanced surface character. Supplied in a ready-to-use liquid form, the product can create different color and texture transitions depending on application thickness, the clay body used, and firing conditions.

Technical Data and Application

Color Pairing Suggestions

The fresh, natural, and crystalline character of Jade glaze can be paired with the following colors:

Application Notes

• Product preparation: Mix the product thoroughly before application to distribute the crystalline effect-forming components and pigments evenly throughout the liquid. Stirring again at regular intervals during application is recommended.
• Brush application: The product can be applied directly over a clean and dry bisque surface. Apply in even coats and allow each coat to dry completely.
• Application thickness: As the number of coats and glaze thickness increase, the whitish artistic effects and crystalline appearance may become more pronounced. Effects may appear weaker when applied too thinly, while excessively thick application may increase glaze movement.
• Pouring and dipping: For these methods, the consistency can be adjusted by adding approximately 5-10% water. Water should be added gradually while preserving the glaze coverage.
• Crystalline appearance: The intensity of the crystalline and whitish effects developing across the surface may vary depending on the peak temperature, hold time, and cooling rate.
• Clay body effect: Jade-green tones and white effects may appear cleaner and fresher on white and light-colored high-fire clay bodies. Dark or grogged clay bodies may produce a deeper surface with a more mineral-like character.
• Form and texture: The glaze may collect at different thicknesses in recessed and raised areas. This may make the crystalline appearance and details of the form more pronounced.
• Firing and cooling: Controlled cooling may affect the development and distribution of the crystalline surface effects. Fast and slow cooling may produce different surface results.
• Vertical forms: Because the glaze may move during firing, a thinner and more controlled application is recommended near the base. Keep the glaze away from areas where it could come into contact with the kiln shelf.
• Storage: Keep the product in its airtight, sealed packaging, away from direct sunlight, and at room temperature.
• Safety: Appropriate protective equipment should be used during application, and the product should be stored out of reach of children.
