General
The lines you see in the glaze on some ceramics is due to “glaze crazing” and is a perfectly normal feature of many glazes. Don’t worry, glaze craze is not a crack and will not affect the functional or hygienic aspects of your item. Don’t be alarmed if the glaze on your cup continues to craze over time, this is also perfectly normal.
Glaze crazing occurs in some glazes where the shrinkage rate of the clay differs to the shrinkage rate in the glaze resulting in a beautiful crackled, sometimes eggshell effect. The thickness of the glaze application will determine the amount of crazing, (if any) so not all ceramics will feature a craze.
