Chromium Oxide (aka Chrome Oxide) is a versatile colourant used in glazes to most commonly produce various green tints. When combined in proper concentrations with other chemicals, such as zinc or lead, browns and oranges may be achieved.
Chromium oxide can also be applied via brush as a wash (on top of or underneath a glaze) or used as a component in slip. It may also be mixed in directly with your clay body. If chromium concentrations become too high, black will be the result.
