Raw Materials
Underglaze in so many ways. Five liquid ranges, plus our awesome chalk and pencil options.
The power of one. Just pure, solid colour, no tricks or pooling effects here. Like your glaze straightforward and classy, this one is for you. Keep it sleek on low, mid, or high fire pieces.
The ultimate wildcard. With these glazes, every piece is one of a kind. Throw in some crevices, experiment with firing temps, and watch your art do its thing.
The show stopper. Glorious crystals bringing in the wow factor! Available in low and mid-fire, these beauties can craze like nobody’s business, so maybe don’t serve up dinner on them. But as eye candy? Next level.
For work that pops (literally). These glazes create a raised, textured effect that doesn’t flatten out in the firing. Great for linework, sponging, or even a little palette knife action. Works wonders at low or mid-fire.
Color treat, without the heat. These bad boys don’t go near a kiln – just like regular acrylic paint, but made for bisque. Perfect for kids’ programs and bisque art parties; just paint and go, no baking required.
Lock it in, for the win. The final seal! Work so good you want to eat off it? Food-safe option is for you. Just like your stuff shiny? We’ve got your back at low, mid, or high fire.

We’re beginner Friendly and here to help (FAQ)
Raku Glaze must be applied to mid fire or stoneware bisque.
The painted bisque is then fired to a very low temperature of Cone 010-06. When the kiln has reached that temperature, remove the piece from the kiln while it’s still hot (safely, please!), and place it into a metal container that has combustible organic material and close the lid to achieve reduction.
After that’s cooled, you can remove your piece, and place it in water. Scrubbing the piece with a wire brush can also help remove any unwanted material.
Then your piece is ready to admire! Remember, these are not food safe pieces.
The Raku Glaze is specifically formulated to melt at lower temperatures than your standard glazes.
They are also designed for rapid cooling and reduction, which gives them these ‘out of this world’ effects that normal glazes do not achieve. But also means they are not food safe. You can’t have it all, hey?!
