Is glaze toxic?

In: Ceramics and Pottery [Edit categories]

Answer:

Most glazes contain toxic materials before they are fired. That is why it is best to use a mask when spraying and to not eat around liquid glazes. Once the glazes are fired however, they are no longer dangerous with the exception of glazes that contain lead frit. These are usually labelled "not for use with food".
