The transparency of the top layer lends the design depth and enhances the vibrancy of each colour. Low fire “glaze” is traditionally used by ceramists as a ‘second’ firing over underglaze on fired pots. Low fire glaze will fire into glass using a very careful firing process aided by a 'proprietary formular' of frits and additives to promote compatibility, stability of the fusing process, and to enhance the vibrancy of the colours. The glaze is used ‘dry’ and not in a liquid form. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"silverferngallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42919516012766,"sku":"MB","price":145.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/0486\/9854\/files\/IMG_4809.jpg?v=1721891135","url":"https:\/\/www.silverferngallery.co.nz\/products\/fused-glass-platter-by-maori-boy-mountain-te-maunga-design-40cm-x-30cm","provider":"silverferngallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
