Blue Inclusion Stain-

$21.50

Clear, optimistic blue like perfect summer weather—fresh calm with standalone impact.

Our ready-to-use ceramic stain delivers bold, consistent color on every piece. It fires beautifully from low-fire earthenware up to 2300°F (1260°C). Color can deepen/darken at higher temperatures, so we recommend test tiles for new clays and firing schedules.

It’s the same stain mix we use in our colored slip, so you can use it to create matching colored clay, slip, or glaze accents with a consistent palette across your whole process. For functional ware, finish with a food-safe clear glaze for a sealed, durable surface.

May be used with glazes with or without zinc, but best results are typically achieved in zinc-free glazes.
