We carry the full line of mica powder from Sepp Leaf Products.  These powders are among the best we've found for working in the kiln.

Micas can be combined with virtually any medium and applied as a paint or glaze.  They can be sandwiched between two layers of glass, and can be applied by sifting, painting, or air brushing.

Mica colors can also be intermixed with other colors.  The density of the color depends on the the amount of powder used, and the color can change based on background color or depth in the glass (mica on top will look different than sandwiched mica). 

These micas are environmentally safe, non-toxic, and non-tarnishing.  They can withstand firing temperatures up to 1650F/900C, and are suitable for interior and exterior use.

All 24 shades of mica are available in two sizes, 25 grams (.88 ounce) and 100 grams (3.5 ounces).   Price is dependent on the particular shade and size selected.

A note about sizes:  The 25 gram container of mica is the same one we use to send out 2 ounces of glass frit (about 1 1/4" high, two inches in diameter). The 100 gram container is approximately 4 inches high and two inches in diameter.

Click to the right to open up a color chart of mica colors.  Use this chart ONLY as a general guideline:  Please be aware that micas are notoriously difficult to photograph and the colors can change dramatically depending on background, lighting, and application surface. 

Note that the chart is a large pdf file and may take some time on open on slower connections.  You will need Adobe Reader to view the chart.
