Product Information

Liquid brush-on ml, powder kg.

Taking inspiration from old English pottery, our stoneware saffron glossy glaze looks at it best on a characterful buff body. The glaze will accentuate the iron content within the body showing rust lines and speckles. As a softer yellow it will work alongside other earth colours of greys, browns, and oranges.

Firing and Working Notes

Firing Range:

1222°C to 1280°C (Cone 6 to Cone 9).

The sample shows two applications on Vitraclay White Throwing Clay, fired to 1240°C.

Suitable for Stoneware clay.

Working Notes:

  • Be generous with the amount of glaze coverings.
  • For full opacity use as a thicker consistency in dipping.

For advice and tips on application with a brush-on, please refer to the article in our knowledge base. "Application with a Brush".

For powdered glazes, please read the article "More About a Dipping Glaze".

This glaze could be potentially safe for dinner/tableware. To be certain, you would need to submit your wares for testing at a reputable laboratory. In the UK, the emphasis in law is to the ‘maker’ who takes responsibility for the food/dinner worthiness of a glazed or unglazed ceramic ware.

For further reading, please read our knowledge base article "Food Safety in Ceramics".

Health & Safety

Lead Free.

Refer to each SDS below for the individual hazards of each glaze.

General Advice:

When handled sensibly, a 'brush-on' glaze presents no serious health issues, but to be safe, do not ingest the liquid and avoid contact with your skin and eyes.

A powder or dried brush-on glaze presents a hazard. It may contain crystalline silica and other materials, which, when inhaled, can cause long-term damage to the lungs or other health problems. We suggest when working with powders or when cleaning, wear an FFP3/P3 mask and filter and use a wet sponge.

Beautiful yellow glaze for sunflowers

I was looking for a yellow for sunflower and this glaze didn’t disappoint. Love how my bowl turned out. Glaze didn’t not come out overly glossy but better for it. Also wanted to use more UK made glazes. Only got the tester pot and worked well.

Glaze Unusable Within One Month Of Purchasing

Purchased this and the first time I used it - fantastic results. Only used a small amount, put the lid back on it, stored it for 1 month like I do all my other glazes. Went to use it again and the glaze has settled rock hard at the bottom, like solid. So unusable now and a total waste of money. Whilst the glazes in this range have all been superb. This one (possibly a bad batch?) is very poor. Would not recommend this.

Love it!

I so wish I'd bought a big tub of this and not a sample. It's a lovely strong bright but mellow yellow with a hint of orange.
