Description
Colour in Glazes by Linda Bloomfield provides a comprehensive guide to achieving a wide range of colourful glazes for studio potters. The book focuses on using colouring oxides to create depth and variety, rather than relying on commercial ceramic stains. A detailed exploration of the methods for achieving colour in glazes is presented, including an examination of base glazes and fluxes used to produce specific colour responses. Practical advice is also offered on mixing, applying, testing, and adjusting glazes, along with a selection of test tiles and glaze recipes for use on various types of clay bodies fired in different kiln types. This book is a valuable resource for potters looking to expand their palette and achieve the desired colour in their work.
