To provide a ceramic color composition by which a ceramic color layer containing no lead and having excellent oxidation resistance can be obtained.

The ceramic color composition essentially consists of, by mass, 40 to 90% lead-free glass powder, 1 to 60% heat resisting pigment powder and a 0 to 59% refractory filler. The lead-free glass powder consists essentially of, by mass based on the following components, 1 to 50% SiO2, 1 to 30% B2O3, 1 to 25% Bi2O3, 1 to 20% Al2O3, 1 to 20% TiO2+ZrO2, 0.3 to 20% Li2O+Na2O+ K2O, 0.1 to 10% P2O5+V2O5+SnO2, 0 to 10% ZnO, 0 to 10% Fe2O3+CuO, 0 to 10% CeO2, 0 to 10% La2O3 and 0 to 5% F.
