Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any residue. 
  2. Using the #4 Soft Fan for even coverage, apply two full coats of EG005 Black Engobe to the inside and outside of the vase. Allow glaze to dry between coats.  
  3. In the inside and at the top 1/3rd of the vase, apply two full coats of CG991 Mountain Moss. Allow glaze to dry between coats. 
  4. Overlapping the CG991 Mountain Moss on the outside of the vase, apply two full coats of CG1006 Purple Reign. Allow glaze to dry between coats.  
  5. Fire to Cone 6. 

Additional Adaptations & Tips 

  • Engobes may be applied to the underside of ware. 
  • Typically, Jungle Gem glaze combinations are fluid when fired to midrange temperatures and above. Without texture to melt over and sink into, expect the glaze to drip! Leave plenty of room to avoid unwanted runoff.
