Weve captured the timeless, iridescent beauty of everyones favorite gemstone and transformed it into a translucent overglaze, ideal for adding that classic luster to your pieces! Mother-of-Pearl can be easily applied and its appearance will vary with the type of glaze over which it is applied. Over a gloss glaze, Mother-of-Pearl adds a shiny luster and when applied over a matte glaze, it adds a subtle sheen. Note: This product is only nontoxic after firing. Work in a well-ventilated area when applying to your piece. Do not stir or shake. Place a small amount of Mother of Pearl on a glazed palette: For a swirled look, swirl on one coat, overlapping strokes. For a smooth look, brush on all strokes in the same direction. Use a soft brush like a Deerfoot Stippler that has been designated for Mother-of-Pearl. Correct application should produce a light blue tint over applied area. A very dark blue means the Mother of Pearl is applied too heavily. Allow to dry. Stilt and fire to cone 020. Clean brush in Essence and let dry.
