About Opulence Glazes
Row content
Opulence Glaze is manufactured by Mid-South Ceramic Supply Company on The Clay Lady’s Campus in Nashville, TN
Opulence Glaze has been on the market since 1988 delivering great results in Cone 6 electric kilns. Now introducing Opulence Glaze for Cone 6 reduction firing in gas and wood kilns! The Clay Lady’s Campus artists, students and Cone 10 customers have been successfully firing Opulence in our gas and wood kilns to Cone 6. Less firing time and less fuel for amazing results!
Opulence Glaze was developed by Dr. Richard Eppler, the foremost glaze chemist in the world, and Tom Turnbull. Manufactured by Mid-South Ceramic Supply Company, sales started in 1986 with the goal to give potters access to quality glaze results with the brillance and clarity to match any in the ceramic industry. A potter did not need to be a chemist, one only needed to add water.
Today, these same high standards are continued as new glazes are being developed by Joseph McDaniel, the glaze technician at
Mid-South Ceramic Supply Company, manufacturer of Opulence Glaze, in Nashville, Tennessee.
Mid-South Ceramic Supply Company, manufacturer of Opulence Glaze, in Nashville, Tennessee.
Since this time many commercial glazes have joined the market, yet Opulence still stands out as the best dipping glaze available. Another advantage that was foremost in development, Opulence Glaze can be blended and/or used as a base glaze so to give each potter their own individual, signature glazes. Also, there is no question about the food safety of the glazes.
Now available in 5 distinctive finishes in both brushing and dipping, Opulence Glaze stays in the forefront of the commercial glaze industry. Each glaze is backed by Mid-South Ceramic’s commitment to education, quality, and best results.
Use & Mixing Instructions
Mixing Instructions
Directions for Brushable Liquid
Brush 3-4 coats on C/06-04 bisque. For best results, use a soft brush. Brushable liquid glaze can be modified for dipping/pouring by adding 2 capfuls of water and shaking well before using. Allow to dry thoroughly before glaze firing to C/6.
Directions for Dry 5 lb and 25 lb quantity
For dipping and pouring, add dry glaze to water as specified below for each glaze line. Sieve through an 80 mesh screen. Recommended specific gravity 150-155.
Gloss Glazes
Numbered 100-599 MIXING DRY: 5 lb -mix with 4.5 lb of water /25 lb -mix with 22.5 lb of water. These colorful, glossy glazes show the best result with a slow, gradual dip. They are not prone to flow or move. Perfect for adding a base color when layering glazes.
EnviroColor Glazes
Numbered 800-899 MIXING DRY: 5 lb -mix with 4.5 lb of water / 25 lb -mix with 22.5 lb of water. Glazes in this group display a unique contrast of sheen and matte effect. Because of the chemical makeup of these glazes, it is very important that you stir between each application. When applied alone, these glazes are not prone to flow or move.
Reduction-Look Glazes
Numbered 600-699 MIXING DRY: 5 lb -mix with 4.5 lb of water / 25 lb -mix with 22.5 lb of water. Reduction Look glazes are formulated to mimic a gas or wood fired look and break into secondary colors. These glazes can be dipped at a slower pace and even benefit from an accented second dip (half way down the pot). All of the glazes in this group run the risk of flowing off the pot if two Reduction Look glazes are layered too closely to the bottom.
Translucent Glazes
Numbered 900-999 MIXING DRY: 5 lb -mix with 4.5 lb of water / 25 lb -mix with 22.5 lb of water. A lighter clay body best shows the colors of these glazes. A slower dip or double dip will result in a deeper effect, especially in textured areas. These glazes pair well when applied under other glazes from the Opulence Glaze lines.
Satin Matte Glazes
Numbered 700-799 MIXING DRY: 5 lb -mix with 4.5 lb of water / 25 lb -mix with 22.5 lb of water. The saturated color and a satin matte finish make these glazes stand out from the rest. Stiring these glazes between each application will ensure the best coverage. Although Opulence Satin Matte glazes fire beautifully at C/6, for a more matte effect, program the kiln to fire C/5 with a 30 minute hold.
