Cracking the Kiln | How Bristol Glazes Work | Ceramic Materials Workshop

What Is a Bristol Glaze? Understanding the Zinc & Calcium Reaction at Cone 6! Join Matt as he takes a look into the world of Bristol glazes—a mid-range glaze formula that combines zinc and calcium to lower firing temperatures. We’ll explore the eutectic reaction that makes these glazes work at cone 6 and break down a real Bristol glaze recipe you can try in your studio. Plus, we’re sharing a recipe from our Test, Test, Test book and letting YOU name it! 💡 Drop your suggestions in the comments and we’ll use the best name when we post the recipe on our glazy page. Ceramic Materials ​Workshop is a place online to understand and explore how and why our Clay and Glazes work (and don’t work). Our materials speak for us in the home and gallery. It benefits us to learn about how to speak through our materials. Mastering the skills of clay and glaze performance helps every ceramicist, become their best self in the studio. Ceramicists at all levels can now learn how Clay and Glazes function with us online.
