Frosty Green Cone 6 Glaze with Warm Yellow Pooling
Winter Green C6 Pro Series Glaze produces a semi-opaque green surface that shifts with application thickness and clay body. A heavier layer develops a frosty green colour with subtle warm yellow pooling, while thinner application can appear more transparent and celadon-like on porcelain or take on a greyer green cast over stoneware. The changing tones suit ridged and textured forms where the glaze can gather across recesses.
Choose this glaze when you want a softer, varied green response rather than a flat single-colour surface. Supplied as dry powder for studio mixing, it can be prepared for dipping, layering or spraying once mixed. Test the selected clay body, application thickness and firing schedule before larger batches, as these factors influence the balance of frosty green, yellow and grey-green colour.
- Firing to Cone 5 can produce a more matt surface
- Avoid firing above Cone 6 because the glaze can run
- Slow cooling can encourage crystal development
