Transparent, glossy craquelé glaze
May only be applied once, as it tends to run
To avoid blistering, bake at 1000°C
Tends to bubble when applied to both sides of some clays
The formation of cracks usually occurs during cooling in the oven and increases over time, sometimes taking up to 1 week
If no cracks occur, the glaze can also be removed from the kiln at approx. 100°C and quenched in cold water
The craquelé net is colored with, for example, black ink, colorful acrylic paints, strong black tea, or similar.
When applied somewhat thicker on horizontal surfaces, e.g. inner surface of plates and bowls, an interesting, dark turquoise flake craquele forms on some clays
