SW221 - Mint Speck

Cone 6 oxidation (image): Mint Speck is a satin-matte, semi-opaque mint green that breaks over texture. Contains small purple, orange and yellow specks. This glaze is highly stable. Cone 10 reduction: Changes to a glossy, transparent pale blue. Specks blur and lose definition with increased application thickness. Remains stable. Tips: Mint Speck uses SW135 Wintergreen as the base glaze. We recommend firing our matte glazes to cone 6 to produce a satin matte finish. Upon opening, specks will be concentrated in the bottom of the bottle. Stir/shake thoroughly to incorporate before each use. Can be used in oxidation or reduction firings. Results may vary. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired results. Always test in your kiln, on your clay body. Stoneware classic glazes offer the depth, sophistication and reliability to artists working from mid-range to high-fire temperatures. Many glazes will break over textures, revealing secondary colors and shades. Used alone, stoneware glazes produce beautiful color variations. One coat will allow the clay body to show through the glaze and two to three coats deeper the color. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired finish.
