"This book made me fall in love with glaze all over again."
--Ben Carter, author of Mastering the Potter's Wheel

Join author and Odyssey Clayworks founder Gabriel Kline on a journey that makes glazing pottery less intimidating and more fun.

Whether you look forward to glazing your work or are guilty of saying "I hate glazing!" Amazing Glaze is for you. Start in the "glaze kitchen" where you'll set yourself up for success, then move on to learning the tools and techniques for getting your glaze right every time. Once you know the basics, discover how to take your glazing to the next level with specialized application and finishing techniques. Along the way, Gabriel shares dozens of tried-and-true glaze recipes and combinations. Stunningly illustrated with color photography, this comprehensive glaze guide includes:

  • An introduction to glazing, covering studio safety, tools and materials, the chemistry of glazes, preparing glazes, testing glazes, and various ways to apply glazes
  • Advanced techniques and special topics, including layering with slip and underglaze, working with resists, creating crystalline effects, achieving an elusive red, applying decals, and combining techniques
  • Over 60 glaze recipes (23 high fire, 22 mid-range, 11 low fire, and 7 raku)--refined over dozens of workshops, hundreds of firings, and innumerable tests--from reliable classics to obscure gems, plus recipes for slips, underglazes, washes, terra sigillatas, and more, together forming thousands of potential color and texture combinations
  • Artist features and inspirational galleries with photos of work from today's top artists, including Cayce Kolstad, Anja Bartels, Nick Moen, Genevieve Van Zandt, Julia Weber, Molly Morning-glory, Naim Cash, Josh Copus, Linda McFarling, and Tisha Cook

Take your skills--and your work--to the next level with Amazing Glaze.
