Micro's are short for microcrystalline, a glaze that develops small crystallization from the zinc and silica during the cooling process. Micros do not actually contain a glass crystal like other Mayco Stoneware crystal glazes; rather, the glaze creates the effect during the firing process. These glazes can be fired from cones 5-10, but the crystallization may not form at higher temperatures. With the exception of Micro Pearl, the micros are not dinnerware safe due to surface durability. We recommend using micros on the outside of dinnerware, below the lip line, or on decorative wares. What are Engobes? Engobes are a hybrid of slip, glaze, and underglaze, used to coat your clay body to your preferred finish/color and are often used for a variety of decorative techniques, such as sgraffito and majolica. They can be applied to wet clay, greenware, bisque, and fire from cones 5-10. Engobes have a similar texture to underglazes and require a clear glaze (matte or gloss) to be considered dinnerware safe. Layering the new micros over the engobes yields fantastic results! One of the highlights that we have discovered for engobes is that they allow studios to change the color of their clay body without cross-contamination or messy cleanup. |
