Kate McCulloch on mon 6 nov 06


Hi All,
I'm looking at getting some ceramic tranfers done professionally as they
will be going on to my final year's work. I was wondering if anyone
used/can recommend any ceramic transfer companies in the UK?
I'm looking at a time frame of 1 1/2 weeks do you think this is possible
for them to be made and sent?
Any help would be very grateful
Kate

P.S I have been recommended Heraldic Pottery so far

Dear Kate,

you should be able to use most printers that have a screen printing =
capability, instead of using dyes etc, they would use Ceramic Enamels on =
the transfer paper with the gelatine protection.

Happy potting Marek

will do custom transfers from your artwork - up to A3 - you can cram as much
as you can on a sheet,

They print ceramic media on Laser printers. I haven't used them for a bit
but they are pretty quick,
