Silver is renowned for its purifying and disinfecting properties. Scientific research supports these claims, such as a 2008 study published in the 'Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology' that demonstrated the efficacy of ionic silver solutions in eradicating bacteria and the Candida albicans fungus in controlled environments. Further corroborating this, Dr. Mark Farinha, a researcher from the University of North Texas, discovered that colloidal silver solutions exhibited antimicrobial action against in-situ populations of Staphylococcus, Candida, and Pseudomonas.
Iron Rust Glazing
Iron rust glaze is a type of porcelain glaze known for its distinct, rustic red-brown, dark red, or black-brown hues that resemble natural rust. It’s a popular choice in tea wares, flower vases, and decorative pieces due to its unique visual appeal and tranquil, earthy aesthetic.
Key Characteristics
-
Unique Color Palette: Iron rust glaze typically features warm, earthy tones, from reddish-brown to dark black-brown, creating a sense of warmth and grounding. The color gradient from surface to glaze depth offers a natural and sophisticated visual appeal.
-
Organic Texture: The firing process produces a mottled, textured finish, often with spots or irregular patterns that resemble the natural oxidation on iron. This adds depth and a tactile richness to each piece, giving it an aged, authentic look.
-
Subtle, Understated Beauty: Iron rust glaze isn’t as flashy or bright as other glazes but offers a calm, understated charm. This subdued color and texture are particularly suited to tea culture and traditional aesthetics, promoting a sense of peacefulness.
-
Role of Iron Oxide: The glaze’s color results from the oxidation of iron in the glaze during high-temperature firing. This firing process creates a uniquely varied color and texture on each piece, making every item one-of-a-kind.
Production Process
Iron rust glaze requires high temperatures, generally between 1200°C and 1300°C. The resulting color depends on the firing atmosphere, which can affect the oxidation of the iron in the glaze. This variability lends a unique character to each piece, enhancing its individuality and collectible value.
Usage Scenarios
Iron rust glaze is commonly used in tea sets, flower vases, and decorative ceramic pieces. Its rich aesthetic is especially suited for traditional settings and Eastern art styles. In tea ceremonies, iron rust glaze tea ware encourages a calm and meditative experience, aligning with the concept of using tea to quiet the mind.
Overall, iron rust glaze is a ceramic finish with a timeless, earthy charm. It pairs artistic beauty with functional use, making it ideal for both practical and ornamental purposes in tea ware and other forms of ceramic art.
