GENERAL GLAZING INFORMATION
Pleasing results can sometimes be achieved by applying one glaze over another e.g. dip once in Grey Jade followed by a further dip in Primrose as soon as the first coat is dry.
If brushing instead of dipping, a total of four coats may be necessary instead of three: two or three of the first colour and one or two of the second. However in this instance take care that the lower part of the piece receives only three coats to allow for glaze flowing down  during firing.
Alternatively, a glaze may be applied in the usual manner, then when dry a contrasting colour may be sprayed on.
All glazes shown on this page have been fired on our White Earthenware clay body in an electric kiln giving an oxidizing atmosphere. 
Other variations in colour development of the glaze will also occur on applying the glaze to our Terra Cotta or Pink Earthenware clay bodies.
