Speedball Mid-Fire Glaze, Dragon Stone, 16 Ounce Jar for Pottery and Ceramics

She’s beautiful and works perfectly. I did two coats cone 6.

Very beautiful glaze

While it shipped untaped and made a mess all over the water prof packaging, I contacted the company and they IMMEDIATELY fixed the situation. While it is inconvient to wait the additional time,getting in touch with a real person who promptly addressed the situation was amazing!

As a 30+ year Ceramic artist, I’m not often impressed with new glazes.Speedball Ceramics has me Impressed with their new Mid Fire glazes and especially the Dragon Stone. It’s a beauty and provides nice consistent results on my clay body.

I’m still undecided if I like this glaze yet. I applied 3 coats on standard 112 clay. I fired to cone 5 with a 10 minute hold. The self supporting witness cones put it at a solid cone 5, with the cone 6 half way down. I may have to get the temperature up a bit higher to see results like the test tile shown for the product? Perhaps it was too heavy of an application? I did 3 coats with a fan brush. I applied on a vertical mug with some texture. I didn’t really see any breaking on texture with this glaze. It was pretty uniformly just mottled looking. It came out mostly green with very little red patches. I was hoping to see more of the red. Some pinholing but generally good. My pinholes are probably related to the speckle in the standard 112. It brushed on kinda weird. The glaze goes on kinda chalky. It is quite thin. I need to do some more tests with it but not on pieces I want to keep.
