Penguin Pottery - Ceramic Glaze - Low-Fire Cone 06 to 04 - Penguin's Choice Series - Orange - 16 oz | 473 ml

It was our clay (8th) anniversary this year so we made some pottery together. I dug up some natural clay from our summer cottage on a small island in Casco Bay and mixed it with some store night clay for turning. So my wife and I tried our best to make some pots. I have very little throwing experience, and my wife had none, so it was just a fun little activity to celebrate our years together. I built a fire, we made some pots, and we dried them next to the coals. I wanted to have glaze be an option for the final baking stage, so I grabbed this because of the color. Granted the coals for the final bake didn't quite get hot enough to create the ideal conditions for glazing, but it sort of worked in some spots. So we now have 1 pot that didn't explode (we should have let the pots all dry a lot more between stages), half of another, and the side of a third. The pot and the side piece (hey oh) did fully glaze in the spots that didn't break off when moisture met heat, and it looks lovely. Recommended for people who know how important it is to wait for clay to dry before covering it with hot coals ... Or for people who are ok with a disaster because it's just being used for a fun anniversary activity. If we attempt it again after doing a bit more research on campfire pottery, we'll definitely get more of their glazes. Would recommend.

It is a hit and a miss. This is a bubble technique but it honestly works better when you alter the glaze. I've done Waterdown and runs, bubble glaze, and straight brush. Love the color but penguin has a habit of inconsistencies in their glazes that I don't purchase anymore.

This white produces a beautiful, glossy white in my microwave kiln.

Though this turned out to be a mellow brown, which is pleasant enough, it is not the vibrant burnt orange I was expecting per the advertised photos. Directions for application and cone firing were followed. I will continue my search for a vibrant burnt orange low fire glaze.

I used a low fire black clay and this color came out beautifully. More of a deep green than teal. I haven't tested on white clay yet but I assume it would become more teal.

This did not work at all!

Have used this brand in past and never disappointed

Glaze worked fine. Is translucent on one piece. The other had good coverage.
