STONE Glaze Powder — Beige to Glossy Crystalline Ash-like Finish

from €25.00

A studio favorite with endlessly beautiful variations

Our signature STONE glaze is a soft, earthy beige when applied thinly, shifting into a glossy, ash-like surface where the glaze pools thicker. At the transition between matte and gloss, delicate crystalline blooms appear — subtle, light-catching patterns that evoke natural ash glazes.

On darker stoneware bodies such as Anthrazit, the glaze reveals even more depth: pale, shimmering crystalline movement reminiscent of northern lights drifting across the surface. The final shade and character vary beautifully between clay bodies — see the last images showing Anthrazit (Witgert).

This glaze is highly thickness-sensitive, rewarding potters who enjoy variation and kiln alchemy:
• 
Thin application → matte beige
• 
Thick application → glossy ash-like surface (some pin holing may appear when applied too thick)
• 
Transition areas → fine crystalline development

No two firings ever look exactly the same — that’s the magic of STONE.

Recommended Firing Range

1220–1280°C (≈ 2228–2336°F)
Cone 6–9 equivalent
Suitable for high-fired stoneware and porcelain.

Lead-free • Cadmium-free

This is my staple studio glaze, used across many collections. For more glaze explorations, see my recipe e-book:

Sold in Powder Form Only

Mixing Guidelines

  1. Start with 1:1 water-to-powder ratio.

  2. Sieve thoroughly.

  3. Add small amounts of water to refine thickness as needed.

Important:
Mix the entire dry bag at once — because the glaze is blended by hand, ingredients are not fully uniform until the full mix is slurried.

Yield example:
500 g (≈ 1.1 lb) of dry glaze = approx. 800 ml (≈ 27 fl oz) liquid glaze.

Application Methods

Apply an even layer. Suitable for:
• dipping
• brushing
• spraying
• pouring

Results will vary depending on:
• glaze thickness
• clay body
• firing curve
• placement in kiln

Testing is highly recommended to discover your favorite variation.

Safety Information — Please Read

• Do not ingest.
• Wear gloves when mixing or applying.
• Keep away from eyes; rinse thoroughly if contact occurs.
• Avoid breathing glaze dust; never sweep dry powder.
• Clean dried glaze with a wet cloth only.
• Ensure good ventilation during firing.
