Transparent Amber Cone 6 Glaze with Warm Brown Depth
Amber Clear C6 Pro Series Dry Glaze produces a transparent amber gloss that warms the clay beneath it and gathers into deeper honey-brown tones across ridges and recessed areas. Its clear, tinted surface suits carved pottery, thrown vessels and textured forms where the underlying body and changing glaze depth can remain visible.
Choose Amber Clear when you want the transparency of a clear glaze with warmer colour and greater visual depth than a colourless finish. Kiln atmosphere is an important variable: reduction firing can move the result towards a classic dark temmoku brown, so test the mixed glaze on the intended clay body before larger work.
- Use test tiles to compare thinner, fuller and layered applications
- Record the clay body and kiln atmosphere when assessing fired colour changes
- Add a suitable brushing medium such as Veegum T when adapting the mixed glaze for brush application
