Information

Cone 6 oxidation (1230°C): Maycoshino is a variegating iron glaze with subtle color changes. In a thin application, the user will achieve rich, iron browns. Applied thicker, the user will get lighter, creamy hues that are reminiscent of traditional Japanese Shino glazes. This glaze is wonderful on any surface, any color clay body.

Cone 10 reduction (1280°C): Color darkens to a gray/brown.

TIP: One coat produces a solid reddish brown opaque covering; Two coats produces a cream-tan-buff finish that breaks brown over surface texture; Three coats significantly introduces waves of cream-tan color over the reddish brown base.
