Abstract (en)

[origin: GB2325182A] A method of decorating an article such as tableware comprises mixing a thermochromic ink with a transparent lacquer, applying the mixture on to part or all of the surface of an article, once the mixture is set, applying a second layer of dishwasher proof transparent lacquer. The proportion of ink in the mixture may be 5-25%. A decoration can be provided on the article beneath the mixture so that it is visible when the thermochromic ink is at least translucent.
