Many of the glazes will break over textures, allowing the creation of intricate patterns and details. When used according to the manufacturer's directions and fired to the appropriate temperature, these glazes are food safe.

Noteworthy Classic Glaze Colours
There are several noteworthy glazes in the stoneware range, some of which can be used as a base glaze in glaze combinations. An example of this is Birch, a soft matte natural number that helps to highlight the form without overpowering any design choices.
Warm and earthy Copper Float works well in combination with other stoneware classic glazes and can be used to create layered, expressive results. Looking for something that allows for expression? Raspberry Mist can introduce dazzling bursts of soft colour to your statement pieces.
Some glazes are high gloss, opaque, and flat in colour, while others have a more complex, varied surface. The Stoneware Classic glazes also include Opals and Ice (translucent) glazes.
