Botz 9040 Engobe Set  £35.87

9040 Engobe set of 6

Botz Engobes are easy to use:  even young children can work with  engobes.  Apply to leatherhard or biscuit fired clay.  The patterns created with it form a high relief on the clay surface.

Engobe set contains 3 different sized painting tips (1.2, 1.5, 1.8 mm) and one adaptor to fix the tips onto the glaze containers
and 50ml of each of the following engobe colours:

​9041 White
9043 Gold Ochre
9046 Bright Blue
9051 Dark Green
9061 Red
9048 Black

All packed a lovely presentation box, making it an ideal gift.

You can also use Botz engobes like casting slip and pour them into plaster moulds, let them dry and fire to 1050°C.

Marble with Botz engobes: Thin the engobes then drip onto the surface and let them flow into each other, glaze transparent after bisque firing if desired.

To obtain an earthy matt surface, you can leave the engobe unglazed after biscuit firing.  Or glaze over with transparent and fire to 1050°C.
