SW175 - Rusted Iron

Cone 6: (1st image) Rusted Iron is a semi-matte, opaque glaze that displays shades of metallic orange and brown. The variation of the glaze is dependent on application.
Thicker application results in metallic matte characteristics. Thinner application results in a smoother surface and darker color.

Cone 10: (2nd image) Increased orange/copper mottling. Increased movement.

TIP: This glaze WILL move. Take care when using on a vertical piece – reduce glaze thickness towards the bottom third to minimize run-off. Over application can cause pinholing or running.

Stoneware matte glazes range from solid shades to those that create interesting color variations as they move and break. Application thickness is the key to making mattes work for you.
