Amaco DL-01 Dipping & Layering Ebony
Ebony from Amaco's Dipping & Layering series is an opaque, glossy black stoneware glaze in powder form. After firing, it creates a uniform, deep black surface that clearly highlights the silhouette and contours of the form. It is particularly suitable as a dark base layer under other Dipping & Layering glazes.
The Dipping & Layering glazes are powder glazes for dipping and pouring. Each bag contains a pre-weighed dry mix that is simply mixed with distilled water, making it economical for studios and classrooms while delivering consistent, easy-to-layer results. The color palette is based on popular shades from the Potter’s Choice series.

Our delivery guarantee
Our delivery guarantee
You should be able to focus on your project while making pottery, not on whether your desired glaze is currently in stock. That is exactly what we are here for.
With over 300 colors in our range, it can happen that a shade is occasionally out of stock. The Formwerk difference: you don't have to search in multiple shops, wait for a service response, or accept any extra costs. If a glaze is sold out with us, we take action manually for you and search for your shade in our European dealer network of 12 partners. We cover the additional shipping costs.
That is our guarantee: every glaze in our range remains permanently orderable. So that you can plan ahead and have a reliable source for your glazes.
