Mardi Gras

#490 Mardi Gras

A beautiful, speckled aqua-blue color with lots of depth and variation. Breaking to a sheer, lime green where thinner, Mardi Gras is ideal for highlighting texture on your piece's surface. This unique glaze changes in color on different clay bodies, gaining hints of gold, purple and deeper blue. Mardi Gras will appear dark, mottled and metallic on our Black Raven Stoneware (333). Dinnerware, microwave and oven-safe when applied appropriately and fired to Cone 6 (oxidation or reduction). Turns a goldish-green when fired in reduction.

Application tips: Apply one (1) dipped coat or 2-3 brushed coats on clay that has been bisque-fired to Cone 04 (glaze application should be approximately the thickness of a dime). We always recommend rinsing your bisqueware with clean water a few minutes prior to glazing. This will encourage better glaze adhesion and a smoother application. Always allow adequate drying time between coats or layering glazes.

Layers especially well with:
#405 Daiquiri Freeze
#412 Mint Chocolate Chip
#461 Rose Quartz
#474 Olive Serpentine
