Ceramingo SG 1516 Aurora - Artistic High-Fire Glaze (R22540)

SG 1516 Aurora - Ceramingo Artistic High-Fire Glaze

SG 1516 Aurora is a reactive artistic high-fire glaze that brings the captivating color transitions of the Northern Lights and the artistic reflections of the sky to pottery surfaces. Its dynamic combination of blue, green, and light tones gives each piece layered depth and a distinctive appearance. Supplied in a ready-to-use liquid form, the product can create different color transitions on every piece depending on application thickness, the clay body used, and firing conditions.

Technical Data and Application

Color Pairing Suggestions

The rich, reactive, and multi-tonal character of Aurora glaze can be paired with the following colors:

Application Notes

• Product preparation: Mix the product thoroughly before application to distribute the pigment and reactive components 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.
• Recommended coats: The sample appearance was achieved by applying three coats over a white clay body. The intensity of the blue and green transitions may vary as the number of coats and application thickness change.
• Application thickness: A sufficient and even thickness supports the multi-tonal reactive surface effect. Color transitions 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.
• Reactive color development: The distribution of blue, green, and light tones may vary depending on the peak temperature, hold time, application thickness, and cooling rate.
• Clay body selection: Color transitions may appear brighter and more distinct on white and light-colored high-fire clay bodies, while dark clay bodies may produce deeper results with a more mineral-like appearance.
• Vertical forms: Because reactive high-fire glazes may move during firing, a thinner and more controlled application is recommended near the base.
• 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.
