Lustres are very sought after, fabulous surfaces which can lure you in and keep you spellbound. Lustres can\u003cbr\u003ebe coloured as golds, coppers, reds and blues, or have a colourless sheen like\u003cbr\u003emother of pearl. Lustre is a very tricky technique offering spectacular results, but it can be\u003cbr\u003equite difficult to achieve successfully, and this handbook aims to\u003cbr\u003eexplain and simplify the process, with thorough coverage of all the\u003cbr\u003eoptions. The book covers recipes for making your own lustres and\u003cbr\u003etechniques for applying and firing (all critical factors), as well as showing you the results of the author's extensive testing to help point you in the right direction. Today one of the\u003cbr\u003emost commonly used lustres is a resin lustre (known as the 'commercial'\u003cbr\u003elustre) which also contains some appalling thinners which are known\u003cbr\u003ecarcinogens. There is therefore an advantage to making your own\u003cbr\u003eusing more natural materials. This handbook covers every lustre that\u003cbr\u003ecan be made, with recipes and kiln instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45049653624983,"sku":"9781912217656","price":2265.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781912217656.webp?v=1769225429","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/lustre-9781912217656","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
