Birch is a Texas Two-Step overcoat, perfect for creating oilspot effects when layered with Licorice, Coffee Bean, or Brick Red. Applied thickly, Birch produces a stunning, spotted pattern, while thinner layers yield more subtle effects. On its own, Birch offers a slightly mottled, neutral tone, ideal for both decorative and functional pieces.

The Texas Two-Step Oilspots series uses paired glazes to craft unique effects. Experimenting with wax resist between layers can enhance the design by adding intricate negative space patterns during firing.
