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.
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.
Tips: Can be applied to wet clay, greenware or soft fired, cone 04 bisque.
Engobes are often used for a variety of decorative techniques, such as sgraffito and majolica.
Fires matte. Apply clear glaze to intensify color or for use on dinnerware.
Engobes will impact glaze results when used as a base. Engobes are used to change the color of your clay color surface without cross contamination and easy clean up in your studio.
Can be used in oxidation or reduction firings. Results may vary. The choice of clay body, thickness of application, firing process, and temperature will greatly affect the fired results.
Always test your application on your clay body in your kiln environment.
