Hawaiian Tapa Cloth is a bold, richly patterned design inspired by the look of traditional tapa cloth. A patchwork of geometric blocks, floral forms, diamonds, stripes, and carved-looking motifs creates a layered surface with lots of texture and visual interest. The hand-drawn, slightly distressed linework gives the pattern an organic, printed feel that works especially well on mugs, bowls, vases, planters, and slab-built pieces.
High quality underglaze transfer printed on thin rice tissue paper.
Extra Large Size: 19”x13”.
Test samples are included with every order. Always test transfers first before committing to a large piece or body of work.
Temperature Range: Cone 06-10. Zinc-free Clear Glaze Recommended.
Level of Difficulty: Medium. Large areas of color will require more burnishing. Will need touching up.
PLEASE NOTE: It is not recommended to rub, sponge or rinse bisqued pieces before glazing as some of the transfers can still smear at this stage.
Once glazed, the transfers are permanently fused to the clay and are considered food safe as long as the glaze used over them is rated food safe.
