Tropical Leaves

This mould forms two different size tropical leaves. On the mould's reverse side is an undulating slumping surface. The finished casting can be placed on this surface and refired at a lower temperature to add subtle curves to the leaves to imbue the casting with a lifelike form. 

The leaves measure approximately 10.16 cm and 13.97 cm respectively, and have fill weights of 60 and 105 grams respectively.

IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT FOR BEST EFFECT, COLOUR DE VERRE SPECIFICALLY RECOMMENDS THE USE  OF HOTLINE PRIMO PRIMER (OR MR-97, WHICH IS NOT CURRENTLY AVAILABLE IN AUSTRALIA). 

Give the mould 3-4 thin, even coats of Primo Primer kiln wash, using a soft artist's brush to apply the Primer (Colour de Verre recommends that you do NOT use a haik brush, as this will not pick up the necessary fine detail).  Use a hair dryer to completely dry each coat before applying the next.
