Cone 6 oxidation (first image): Olivine has rusts and several shades of green flow from this mobile gloss glaze. Lighter coats produce muted greens and browns, 3 coats can
produce a beautiful metallic green, almost mirror-like, luster.
Cone 10 reduction (second image): Color flattens and warm undertones come through.
TIP: The thinner the application, the more green the glaze will be. The thicker the application, the more brown the glaze will be. If the glaze is fired cooler, the deeper brown and less variation will appear. If too brown, put back in the kiln and fire again.
Mayco Stoneware - SW127 Olivine
Stoneware Classic & Matte Glazes: Stir well. Apply to soft-fired bisque (cone 04/06). Apply one, two or three coats depending on the result desired. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next coat. Fire from cone 5/6-10. See label for additional firing information for individual glazes and cone 10 performance.
Stoneware Crystal Glazes: Crystal glazes are designed to expand upon the surface with dazzling bursts of color. Crystals will settle to the bottom of the jar and will need thorough mixing prior to initial use and in between each coat. Apply two to three coats using a fan or hake brush. While the glaze is wet, use your brush to redistribute crystals to achieve balanced coverage. Over application of the crystals can cause pinholing or running. Avoid placing crystals near the bottom third of a vertical piece as they may cause additional movement during firing. See label for additional firing information for individual glazes and cone 10 performance.
Stoneware Gloss Glazes: Stoneware Gloss glazes can be used in design, all over coverage and are the ideal product for intermixability at mid-range temperatures. The integrity of your design will remain unchanged as these glazes are incredibly stable and will not move or combine with surrounding colors. See label for additional firing information for individual glazes and cone 10 performance.
