Transparent Glazing
When the pottery has been painted, it is ready for the final coat of glaze. The last layer of glaze is transparent and is applied in our process using a spray. It is this final layer that gives the pots their final creamy-smooth, glossy finish when fired. As the paint is now held, sandwiched irrevocably between the two layers of glaze, one opaque and the other clear, it is often described as an 'underglaze painting'.
