AMACO Underglaze Velvet Nectar
AMACO Velvet Underglaze | V-311 Nectar
Nectar is a rich, warm yellow reminiscent of honeysuckle flowers. At cone 05, it appears as a bright, golden yellow and transforms into a soft, light amber when covered with a clear glaze. The colour deepens slightly at cone 5 and cone 10, maintaining its beautiful warmth across firing ranges.
AMACO Velvet Underglazes offer saturated colour, excellent coverage, and reliable results. They're as easy to use for beginners and students as they are for professional ceramicists and artists working with clay. Velvets fire true-to-colour from cone 05/06 and most can be fired up to cone 10.
Key Features:
- Strong, saturated colour (three coats suggested for full coverage)
- Firing range: Cone 05 – Cone 10
- Suitable for application on greenware/unfired clay or bisque
- Two beautiful finishes depending on glaze cover:
- A subtle textured velvet-matte surface when left unglazed
- Intensified colour and a brilliant glassy finish under a clear glaze
- Food safe when sealed with a suitable glaze
- Mixable with other colours in the range
- Suitable for spray application
Safety Information:
Tableware producers should test all finished ware to confirm food safety, as results may vary due to firing conditions or surface contamination.
Due to variations in raw materials used during manufacturing, we recommend firing glazed test tiles before using each new batch number of glaze.
