Top glaze: what it is, what it is used for, and how to apply it
Episode 54
Sunday, 6 July, 2025
In the ceramic field, a “top glaze” refers to the glaze applied as the final layer onto the unfired ceramic substrate. This glaze can serve multiple functions, but it primarily protects the underlying decoration and imparts specific technical and aesthetic properties to the surface.This episode focuses on this particular class of glazes, taking a closer look at the key functions and rheological characteristics (among others) that the suspension must exhibit, depending on the chosen application method and the type of ceramic product being manufactured.
