underglaze transfers

Underglaze transfers are decorative designs applied to ceramic surfaces to enhance their appearance. They consist of pre-printed or hand-painted images that are transferred onto the clay body before glazing. Once applied, the object is fired at a high temperature, fusing the design securely onto the surface. This process allows for detailed and consistent patterns, often used in traditional ceramics and porcelain. Under this glaze application protects the design from wear and provides a smooth, glossy finish once glazed. It’s a popular technique for producing intricate, durable decorations on pottery and tiles.
