Descifrando el Horno | Mate & Cristalina | Ceramic Materials Workshop

Are matte glazes all about slow cooling? What's really going on with crystalline glazes? Join Matt in another episode of Decoding the Kiln as he breaks down the different chemistry behind matte and crystalline glazes, covering: ✔️ What actually creates matte surfaces (spoiler alert: it's not just the cooling!) ✔️ How zinc and calcium crystals form in the kiln ✔️ Why "microcrystals" might not be what you think ✔️ Firing cycles for consistent results Delve deeper into glaze chemistry with us at the Ceramic Materials Workshop, where we love to debunk myths and make the complex world of ceramics accessible and fun. The Ceramic Materials Workshop is an online space to understand and explore how and why our clay and glazes work (and don't). Our materials speak for us in the home and gallery. We benefit from learning to communicate through our materials. Mastering clay skills and glaze performance helps every potter become their best studio artist. ➤ Potters of all levels can now learn how clay and glazes work with us online.
