Amaco SH-52 Hibiscus Matte Stoneware Glaze

Amaco Shino Hibiscus Matte combines salmon pink, orange and brown in a matte, variegated surface that changes with the thickness of the applied glaze layer.

A thin application of Hibiscus Matte emphasizes the warm rust-brown base. A heavier layer strengthens the salmon-pink, orange and brown tones, while texture makes their variation easier to see. At the recommended firing temperature, the glaze has a matte finish.

Amaco Shino

Amaco Shino glazes are inspired by the humble earthiness of tea ceremony bowls. In oxidation firings, they produce a rich, high-iron surface reminiscent of reduction-fired glazes. They enhance both textured and smooth clay surfaces and are suitable for white and red clay bodies.

The Gloss and Matte versions can be blended to create intermediate levels of sheen. The glazes can also be layered with Amaco Potter's Choice glazes to produce more dynamic, complex surfaces.
