Textured Turquoise over Arctic Blue mugs by Jonathan Jon

That’s a beautiful glaze combination on these textured mugs by Jonathan Jon! The Arctic Blue base provides a soft, cool undertone, while the AMACO Textured Turquoise adds depth and movement with its reactive, slightly runny nature, creating that stunning organic transition. The AMACO Oatmeal on the top third warms up the piece, subtly blending into the turquoise for a natural, flowing effect. The bubbling texture near the bottom likely comes from the interaction between these glazes, enhancing the handcrafted, almost fluid-like aesthetic. It’s a fantastic example of layering to create both visual and tactile interest!
