Ultramarine

Description

Glossy ultramarine blue glaze with very saturated colour, formed by small opaque nucleations scattered over a deep, semi-transparent blue background. An intense, bright, almost vibrating finish.

• Famille : Frosty

• Opacity : semi-transparent — Finish : glossy — Texture : cristal

Usage

• Ideal for mame, shohin and kusamono, where a strong colour can become an interesting graphic element without overpowering the tree.
• Can be used on larger pots, but with a clear intention, as its saturation makes it a bold, expressive choice.
• Excellent with white, pink or pale blossoms, which it makes stand out with intensity.
• Suitable for trees with dark green foliage, where the depth of the blue creates a rich, harmonious contrast.
• Best avoided for very rustic, dark or massive trees, where the vivid glaze could upset the visual balance.
• Perfect for modern, dynamic displays, or compositions where a strong, luminous element is desired.

Creation notes

Ultramarine is the most vibrant variant in this glaze family, playing on the contrast between a deep blue background and bright opaque nucleations. Each firing intensifies or balances this visual texture without losing any of its brilliance.
