Blue-Green Crystal Glaze Effects for Textured Bisque
Pottery Peacock Gare Crystal Glaze creates a deep blue-green fired surface with multi-tone colour variation, crystal-style detail and a high gloss shine. It is a useful choice for bisque pieces where you want a dramatic, layered glaze effect rather than a flat single-colour finish.
This low-fire crystal glaze works especially well on textured bisque, where the glaze can seep and pool into grooves to create depth and surface interest. As a reactive glaze, it can move and flow during firing, so test pieces are recommended before using it on important work or new glaze combinations.
- Sponge ware before glazing to remove dust from the bisque surface
- Shake the bottle well before use for a more consistent application
- Best treated as a variable reactive glaze effect rather than an exact repeatable flat colour
