What are Engobes?

Engobes are similar to a slip, used to coat your clay body to your preferred finish/color and are often used for a variety of decorative techniques, such as sgraffito and majolica. They can be applied to wet clay, greenware or bisque and fire from cones 5-10. Engobes have a similar texture to underglazes and require a clear glaze (matte or gloss) to be considered dinnerware safe. Layering the new micros over the engobes yields fantastic results
