luster glaze (<ceramic glaze by technique>, ceramic glaze, ... Materials (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Thin metallic films that produce an iridescent effect on ceramics or glass. Luster glazes have been used since the 9th century in the Middle East ceramics. Spanish and Italian majolica pottery was produced by a multistep technique in which the metallic glaze was applied over a fired glaze then the ceramic was refired to adhere the two layers. The thin metallic layer is obtained with either reducing salts or a reducing atmosphere. By the 19th century, a single step technique was developed in England that produced an overall luster glaze. Various colors are obtained by the addition of minerals.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Een type versiering dat men kan verkrijgen door te schilderen met een pigment dat metaaloxiden bevat (meestal een mengsel van koper en zilver) op een vooraf gebakken glazuur. De versiering wordt aangebracht en ondergaat vervolgens een tweede bakbeurt in een reducerende atmosfeer. De versiering kan zowel op een tin-, alcaline- als loodglazuur aangebracht worden. The oxide wordt tijdens het bakken gereduceerd tot metaal dat zich vervolgens vasthecht aan het oppervlak van het glazuur. Het metalen oppervlak en de extreme dunheid van het lusterpigment geeft een typisch gouden en iriserend effect.
