The salt and pepper shakers are now glazed with high fire glaze. The two colors in the background are combination glazes, with the deep firebrick underneath with 2 coats and another 2 coats of blue rutile on top.
High fire glaze combs using deep firebrick base
These cups were glazed by applying two good coats of PC-59 Deep Firebrick in a horizontal direction. Let each coat dry before applying the next. Then two good coats of the “layered” glaze were applied over the Deep Firebrick in a vertical direction. Again, let each coat dry before applying the next. These cups were fired to Cone 6 at medium speed with a 10 minute hold.
High fire glaze combos using midnight blue base
Josh Heim created these Potter’s Choice Combination Cups using one thick coat of PC-12 Blue Midnight as a base. Then three coats of the top coat were applied. Let dry between coats. Josh uses a fan brush to apply the glazes. He says this allows for a more even coverage. AMACO® 46-M, a Cone 5/6 stoneware clay was used to create the cups.
High fire glaze combos using deep olive speckle base
Ceramic artist Josh Heim glazed these Potter’s Choice Combination Cups by applying two coats of PC-29 Deep Olive Speckle as a base followed by two coats of the second PC color. Best results are achieved when the first coat is allowed to dry before adding the second. He used a fan brush for more even coverage. The cups were created withAMACO® Buff Stoneware Clay No. 46, a Cone 5-6 clay body.
