Pottery artists and ceramic hobbyists, want to add detailed, full-color designs to your pieces without hand-painting? These ceramic decals (also called waterslide decals) are a game-changer. This specific design features a beautiful green ocean shellfish pattern. You get one large decal sheet measuring about 6.5 by 9 inches. Here’s how it works: You fire your pottery piece with a base glaze (usually a white or light color). Then, you soak the decal in water, slide the thin, printed film off the backing paper, and apply it to your glazed piece like a temporary tattoo. Let it dry, then fire it again in your kiln. The decal is designed to be fired at a high temperature (between 1160°C and 1340°C, or 2120°F to 2444°F), which fuses the colors permanently into the glaze underneath (this is an *underglaze* decal). The result is a professional-looking, durable design. They work in both oxidation and reduction kiln atmospheres. Perfect for mugs, plates, tiles, or vases. It’s a fantastic way to achieve complex artwork on your ceramics. Make sure you follow the firing instructions for best results. A whole world of decoration opens up with these!
