Potters and ceramic artists, this is a high-quality pigment stain from Germany. This 'Arctic Blue' (color code 046) is a vibrant, concentrated powder used as an underglaze or for coloring clay bodies. It's lead-free and food-safe when properly fired and glazed. The high stain content means you get intense, brilliant color with less product, making it very cost-effective. You can apply it to leather-hard clay (greenware), bisqueware, or even earthenware. Mix it with water to a paste or slurry for brushing, dipping, or trailing. When left unglazed, it has a soft, matte finish; covered with a clear transparent glaze, the color becomes deeper and glossy. It's also intermixable with other colors in the same line to create your own custom shades. Firing range is wide, from about 890°C to 1300°C (Cone 022 up to Cone 9), making it versatile for earthenware, stoneware, or porcelain. Comes as a 1.41 oz (40-gram) bag of powder. Elevate your ceramic palette with this professional-grade color.
