Low-Fire Terra Bella Egyptian Blue (551)

Terra Bella Egyptian Blue (551) is a rich, deep blue glaze with soft reactive movement. Depending on thickness, the tone shifts from medium denim blue to a darker, velvety shade, creating natural variation without strong contrast. The surface develops a smooth, semi-gloss finish with a fine speckled texture that adds depth and a classic ceramic character.

Tested at Icewood Atelier:
Samples were brushed with two to three coats of Egyptian Blue and fired at 950 °C with a 10-minute hold. The result was an even, slightly mottled surface with subtle gloss and a calm, layered blue tone that brings out shape and detail beautifully.

Egyptian Blue works perfectly on its own for traditional blue finishes or layered with lighter glazes such as Mystic White (553) to achieve soft, cloud-like transitions and a timeless contrast between cool and warm tones. Shake well before use and apply two to three coats on bisque ware. Firing temperature 950–1000 °C with 10-minute hold.

Food-contact safety:

Colorobbia ART products do not contain toxic materials or lead and are therefore suitable for the production of tableware.

However, the glazes are subject to a further processing/firing stage by the customer, over which we have no control. The final characteristics of the glazed item may therefore depend on the application, firing conditions and the combination of products used.

For this reason, the food-contact compliance of the finished item can only be assessed and certified by the customer on the final product, under the actual application and firing conditions.

Therefore, we recommend that the customer carries out the appropriate tests on the finished article, particularly for the intended food-contact use.
