Glass ceramic or glass body that can be subjected to great thermal loads and is decorated with a color based on a melted silicate containing effect pigments

Abstract

The invention relates to a glass ceramic or glass body that can be subjected to great thermal loads and is decorated with a color based on a melted silicate containing effect pigments. In order to reduce the protective look provided by the decoration, the melted silicate contains special effect pigments at a predefined ratio, said special effect pigments producing a color-flopping effect on the decorated glass ceramic of glass body. The human brain is hardly able to perceive the traces of wear as the tint changes according to the angle of vision. Preferably, the color-flopping color is based on a melted silicate to which effect pigments are added at a given ratio in the form of synthetic plane-parallel silicon dioxide (SiO2) laminae which are coated with metal oxides.
