About this collection
You don't need to guess if these glazes will work. Every finish here, from our metallic Medieval Gold to the reactive Copper Patina, is developed and tested by our team in Koramangala using Cone 6 firing cycles. If we wouldn't use it on our own display pieces, we do not put it on the shelf.
Glazes that work
Finding reliable materials is half the battle in ceramics. We focus on mid-fire (Cone 6, 1223°C) glazes because they balance depth of color with structural stability. Whether you are working with dark stoneware or lighter clay bodies, our in-house formulations are designed to be predictable.
The range
- Metallic Finishes: Our Medieval Gold provides a satin matte antique finish, ideal for decorative work where you want to highlight carved textures.
- Reactive Glazes: Options like Copper Patina and Pirate Black offer dynamic results. Depending on the thickness of your application and how the glaze pools, you will see shifts in color and texture that make every piece unique.
- Reliable Solids: For functional ware, we stock glossy glazes like our Lush Green, known for its consistent coverage and stable behavior.
Practical support
We know that access to a kiln is often the biggest hurdle for independent potters in Bengaluru. If you love the look of these finishes but lack the equipment, we offer kiln shelf rental services. You can bring your bisqued pieces to our Koramangala studio, and we will handle the firing schedules for both bisque and glaze cycles. We are here to support your process, from the first sketch to the final firing.
Clay Station
We started Clay Station to make pottery accessible, and that includes the supplies we use ourselves. If it is on our shelf, it has been through our own kilns in Koramangala, so you know exactly how it will turn out.
