Mica Infused Terra Sigillatas
Clay Art Center’s Mica Infused Terra Sigillatas brings unique sheen, sparkle, and color to lowfire artists. Our “Mica Sig” enhances the naturally beautiful surface quality of terra sigillata. To our classic OM4 terra sigillata, we add various colors of mica pigment to create a rainbow of metallic and blushing interference colors.
Metallic Mica colors have a opaque, brilliant sheen and are true to color even when fired up to cone 04. They are specially coated to yield a metallic appearance. Fine particle colors give a more opaque glistening sheen and the coarse particles sparkle more. The metallic colors may also be fired in electric kiln.
Interference “Blush” Micas appear almost white but with a blush of color where smoke has penetrated the piece. This makes them ideal for any smoke firing process (such as Horse Hair, Feathers, Saggar) where reduction smoke adds black to the clay surface.
Mica Infused Terra Sigillatas are best fired below Cone 02 for best results.
