About

  • Cone 6: Oyster is a variegated cream/brown glaze that exhibits gray/purple undertones and breaks brown.
  • Cone 10: Color changes to a variegated brown/cream. Increased movement.
  • If your kiln fires cool the glaze finish can be brown. If your kiln fires hotter you can get an iridescent finish. Re fire piece if you don’t desire the brown finish you get when it is fired cool. This glaze has a gloss finish. If you like Green Tea and Capri Blue combos, then try oyster because these three glazes are in the same glaze family.
  • Also available in dry format 2SD110-5

Stoneware classic glazes offer the depth, sophistication and reliability to artists working from mid-range to high-fire temperatures. Many glazes will break over textures, revealing secondary colors and shades. Used alone, stoneware glazes produce beautiful color variations. One coat will allow the clay body to show through the glaze and two to three coats deeper the color. The choice of clay body, thickness of glaze application, firing process and temperature will affect the fired finish.

 

Stoneware Classic & Matte Glazes

Mayco Stoneware Classic glazes are a mixture of AP Non-Toxic and CL (Health Caution) label. Please review the individual color label for health classification and any appropriate warnings. All but one (see below) of the Stoneware glazes in the Classic line are Food Safe, according to FDA standards. Note: Finishedware producers may be required to have their ware food safe tested prior to introducing into commerce. With the exception of those noted below, The Stoneware Classic and Matte glazes are also Dinnerware Safe when used according to manufacturer’s directions and fired to the clay body’s vitrification temperatures. SW-132 Mirror Black, SW-182 Antique Brass, SW-164 Satin Patina, SW-185 Rainforest, SW-186 Azurite, SW-187 Himalayan Salt, SW-188 Landslide, SW-195 Riptide, and SW-197 Fossil Rock are not Dinnerware Safe due to the durability of the fired glaze. Some glazes, regardless of surface texture or porosity of underlying clay body, will be designated as not suitable for dinnerware as the fired glaze surface is not durable and can be impacted by contact with food or liquids. While it may not be harmful, it is certainly not desirable. SW-132 Mirror Black, SW-182 Antique Brass, SW-164 Satin Patina, SW-185 Rainforest, SW-186 Azurite, SW-187 Himalayan Salt, SW-188 Landslide, SW-195 Riptide, and SW-197 Fossil Rock are recommended for ornamental use only.

Stoneware Crystal Glazes

Mayco Stoneware Crystal glazes are a mixture of AP Non-Toxic and CL (Health Caution) label. Please review the label for the individual color’s health classification and any appropriate warnings. All of the glazes in the Crystal line are Food Safe, according to FDA standards. Note: Finishedware producers may be required to have their ware food safe tested prior to introducing into commerce. The Stoneware Crystal glazes are also Dinnerware Safe when used according to manufacturer’s directions and fired to the clay body’s vitrification temperatures. However, discretion and judgment should be used if the glaze surface is heavily textured, less from a safety and more from an aesthetic perspective.

Stoneware Gloss Glazes

Mayco Stoneware Gloss glazes are AP Non-Toxic, Food Safe, and Dinnerware Safe, when used according to manufacturer’s directions. Note: Finishedware producers may be required to have their ware food safe tested prior to introducing into commerce.
