About Georgies
Georgies has served clay artists in the Pacific Northwest since 1965, though it did not start in ceramics. It began as Irene's Objets d'Art, became Georgie's Plaster Shoppe in 1975, and moved into ceramics in 1980, which is where the current name comes from. Still family owned.
They make their glazes with the same attention they give their clays, and they are direct about the one exception in their range: the raku glazes are the line they do not recommend for students below high school age.

About these images and what your pot will actually look like
We have done our best to represent every glaze here accurately, and you should still expect your pot to look different from what is on this screen.
Our glaze tile images are digitally created. They are built to show the character of a glaze, not to be a color match.
A screen is not a printout, a printout is not a test tile, and a test tile is not a finished pot. Each step in that chain shifts what a glaze looks like, sometimes a lot.
On top of that, the pottery itself changes the result: the clay body, how thick the glaze went on, whether it was brushed, dipped or sprayed, what was layered under or over it, where the piece sat in the kiln, how hot that spot ran, how fast it cooled, what was fired next to it, and how much texture the surface had. Two pots glazed from the same jar on the same day can come out different.
Treat every image here as a starting point, and treat a test tile fired on your own clay as the real answer.
