Ancient Copper (Amaco PC‑56) is a striking glaze that transforms from warm copper to fiery rust tones depending on application thickness and surface texture. On smooth surfaces, it yields rich, semi-gloss reds with subtle metallic depth. On texture, it breaks dramatically with flashes of black, orange, and glowing ember hues. A bold, eye-catching choice for dynamic mid-fire work.
