Abstract
Ceramic decoration coloring substances substantially containing a zirconium pigment of the host lattice or inclusion type and a glass flux at a pigment volume concentration (PVC) of at least 30% have an increased color saturation C* if the glass flux comprises at least 71 wt. % PbO. Preferred decoration coloring substances have a PVC in the range from 40 to 70% and a PbO content of 75 to 85 wt. %. The decoration coloring substances are especially suitable for production of decorations, burned at 1000 to 1250.degree.C, with increased color saturation C*.
