Amaco CR- 1 Black Crawl

CR-1 is a glossy black glaze that, when fired, crawls into raised shapes of varying sizes and forms. The result is a surface marked by unpredictable, natural patterns that add unique texture and visual interest to each piece. The featured chip image of CR-1 is applied on AMACO No.11 A-Mix White Stoneware. Layering sample images are 2 coats over 2 coats, fired to Cone 6.

Apply 1-4 even coats of glaze to cone 04 bisque. Allow each coat to dry almost fully, but before any significant cracking occurs. Crawl glazes will develop hairline cracks as they dry; handle with care. For added durability before firing, layer over an AMACO Celadon glaze or underglaze.

More coats create larger glaze dots, while thinner coats produce a finer bead effect. Increased coats will produce more cracks. Fire to cone 5-6 for best results. 

These glazes are food safe when layered over AMACO Celadons.
