'Botanic Papertone' Ceramic Sticker

Dear fellow ceramic artists,

We are beyond excited to introduce our latest project—ceramic transfer stickers designed to expand your decorating possibilities.

Developed by our designer and founder, these special ceramic transfers work like collage elements. Simply cut them into any shape, soak them briefly in water, and apply them to your ceramic piece. Once fired at high temperatures, the transfers permanently fuse to the surface, ensuring a durable, long-lasting finish.

Our stickers are printed using a unique ink made from a complex blend of oxides, carefully formulated to achieve a rich and diverse color palette. They are printed on specialized paper designed to withstand high-temperature firings.

You can choose from solid color blocks or a variety of original textures, allowing you to create depth, contrast, and unique visual effects.
Our 'Botanic Papertone' features a rich, organic texture reminiscent of handcrafted paper, bringing a fresh and natural touch to your ceramic pieces.
Whether you're looking for a clean, modern aesthetic or an organic, artistic touch, these transfers give you the flexibility to bring your creative vision to life!

Where can you use them?
Our ceramic stickers have been tested on stoneware, porcelain, and earthenware with excellent results. While they may also adhere to mixed-body ceramics, we haven't tested them in this case, so we cannot guarantee their performance.

How It Works:
1. Select your preferred ceramic transfer sheets (each A4 sheet is a full-color block with small horizontal and vertical margins).
2. Cut them into any shape using scissors or a precision scalpel.
3. Soak the cut piece in water for a few seconds until the ceramic transfer layer separates.
4. Apply the transfer onto your ceramic piece.
5. Smooth out any air bubbles and remove excess water using a sponge, a soft cloth, or a plastic rib.
6. Let it dry for about 24 hours to ensure proper adhesion.
7. Fire your ceramic in the kiln at around 850°C / 1560°F! (We provide recommended firing programs with your order.)

Product Details:
- Unique ceramic transfer stickers developed by our designer and founder—available in smooth solid colors and various textured finishes.
- Printed by our team in France, ensuring artisanal quality with slight variations that enhance the uniqueness of each piece.
- Print size: A4 (21 x 29.7 cm) with a usable area of 20.2 x 28.5 cm.
- Note on Color: The color of the printed paper before firing is not representative of the final result, which only becomes visible after firing. Additionally, the color shown on our website is for reference only and may differ from the outcome once the piece has been fired.
- Important: Please note that results may vary depending on multiple factors such as firing conditions, kiln model, glaze type, and ceramic body. We strongly recommend conducting a test before applying the transfers to a large batch of pieces. INI CERAMIQUE cannot be held responsible for any unexpected variations in results.
- Due to technical limitations, the color white cannot be printed.
- For optimal results, we recommend applying these transfers on a smooth, glossy, and transparent glaze. Application on matte, satin, or raw surfaces may lead to adhesion issues, uneven fusing, or a faded appearance. We do not guarantee results on untested surfaces.
- A detailed instruction guide on sticker application and firing schedules is included with every order.
- After firing: The decorated pieces are dishwasher- and microwave-safe.
- We decline any responsibility if issues arise due to the use of materials other than those mentioned above (stoneware, porcelain, earthenware).
