The combination of aesthetic and functional features in ceramics opens new possibilities for both cultural and engineering applications. This study examines the interaction among patterned surfaces, color glazes, and ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) through an analytical and data-driven methodology. Substrate parameters for UHTCs were obtained from the literature, and high-temperature stable glaze properties were compiled from open-access glaze datasets. Thermal mismatch stresses between the glaze and substrate were determined using an analytical thin-film model, and steady-state temperature gradients across the glaze, UHTC bilayer were evaluated under high-temperature conditions. The influence of pattern geometry on local stress distribution and glaze thickness variation was discussed qualitatively. The results demonstrate how glaze composition, colorants, and firing conditions affect both aesthetic stability and structural resilience at extreme temperatures. This framework facilitates the design of UHTCs that combine visual appeal with oxidation resistance, offering potential applications in architectural surfaces, high-value decorative artifacts, and aerospace components.
