Washes
Washes add depth, texture, and character to your pottery by enhancing surface details and creating unique effects. These thin, pigment-rich mixtures can be used alone or layered under glazes for added dimension. Explore our selection of washes to bring out the best in your ceramic work.
Washes are a great way to highlight texture and create interesting surface effects on your pottery. Made from metallic oxides or stains mixed with water or a flux, they settle into cracks, carvings, and textured areas to enhance depth and contrast. Some washes add a soft, smoky look, while others react beautifully with glazes for unexpected color shifts.
These versatile finishes can be used on greenware, bisque, or even between glaze layers to achieve different results. They are perfect for potters looking to create aged, rustic, or weathered effects with minimal effort. Whether you’re accentuating carved details or adding a subtle color wash, these products offer plenty of creative possibilities. Browse our collection to find the right wash for your next project!
