Variations --
Copper carb 3% + Cobalt carb .25% = teal blue with tiny crystals (if soaked ), glossy.
Cobalt carb .25% = frosty delft blue, matt surface (why matt??).
Copper carb 5% = Forest green, clear and glossy.
Manganese 4% + Cobalt .5% = Dark plum,glossy, nearly black where thickest.

Comments:
From Margaret Bohls: fired cone 9 electric
Gorgeous satin, slightly sugary surface. Slightly translucent. I use the Base White
as a complementary glaze to a shiny white or clear glaze over porcelain, for a
"white on white" effect. The chartreuse, although equally gorgeous, fumes like mad
and may affect glazes next to it on the same pot or in the same area in the kiln,
either by turning them green or by making them wrinkle or bubble. Some glazes are
unaffected. I isolate this glaze in the kiln.

Comments:
Matt glaze almost black where thin, army green where thick. Nice
colonial (bluish slate) over white slip Well I finally got around to
typing this thing up...^9-10 Blues Thank you one and all for all the
donated recipes. I only tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll
continue testing and reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes
were tested on #900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One
side of the test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia
Bringle's wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three
thicknesses on a heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a
(hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08
and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown.
Any time potash or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball
clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium
with Strontium. All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel
well. Your results will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test
before use. Tracy Wilson Saltbox Pottery 4 Shaw Rd. Woolwich, ME

Here's one that I formulated and have used for a number of years. It
is best applied by spraying but can be dipped, poured, etc. You have
to work with the thickness to got the desired result. A light
application will orange peel like a salt glaze while heavier
applications will run. Too much thickness and you will get
blistering. This glaze works well with most oxides. It also works
best on porcelain or with white slips but don't be afraid to try
anything...you never know. You can get this glaze to work at cone 8
and 9 by substituting Ball Clay for Kaolin. You might want to do a
sub at cone 10 as well to observe the difference. Regards, Craig

Comments:
re: your request for fake ash glazes here's one that we make called
BP26S Light green 'ash' glaze. The glaze is typically low in silica
and high in the alkaline earths - calcium and magnesia, and of the
type that has a shiny glassy melt within which satiny matt crystals
develop. Because it's used by electric kiln potters the light green
colour is given by copper carbonate. If to be used in a reduction
firing one would probably want to take out the copper and put in a
few percent of iron oxide. Mike Bailey. Bath Potters' Supplies, UK

Comments:
re: your request for fake ash glazes here's one that we make called
BP26S Light green 'ash' glaze. The glaze is typically low in silica
and high in the alkaline earths - calcium and magnesia, and of the
type that has a shiny glassy melt within which satiny matt crystals
develop. Because it's used by electric kiln potters the light green
colour is given by copper carbonate. If to be used in a reduction
firing one would probably want to take out the copper and put in a
few percent of iron oxide. Mike Bailey. Bath Potters' Supplies, UK

My favorite fake ash is called 'Hannah Fake Ash,' though I don't know
the origin. Great in ^10 Reduction, salt/soda, wood, etc. It looks
like what all the 'old guys' (sorry!) say Lorio's Ash looked before
the Albany Slip went south and people used hard brick kilns and fired
slow and so forth. <g> I love it. Anyroad... You probably don't have
Redart in Australia, either. Do a triaxial blend with any red clay,
and two alkaline earth (Ca, Ba, Li, Sr, Mg) providers. You will be
surprised at all the glazes you find! Don't need a computer, either.

Comments:
For a Cone 6 glaze, Nepheline Syenite can be substituted for the
Custer Feldspar. Kevin O'Hara asked about a reliable base formula for
an ash glaze. We have been using the glaze base provided by Harold
McWhinnie in his November 1986 'Ceramics Monthly' article (A
Multipurpose Glaze, p. 75). We repeat it below. If you have any
questions about this glaze, we believe that Harold is now monitoring
the Clayart list regularly. We have experimented with various types
of wood ash. We now use pecan hull ash. Fortunately, we have many
pecan trees in the area along with cracking plants that kindly supply
us with the hulls. There is a lot of oil in pecan hulls (including
many nuts) so they burn hot with very little but fine ash. We do not
wash this ash; however, we have found that we must wash other wood
ash. We experimented with Victoria's Secret ash (burned their ceasely
catalogs) but found it full of trash and required cleaning. John and

I've tried a bunch, and not had much luck until recently. I've been
using one for a few firings now that I like pretty well; it responds
in an interesting way to different atmospheres and clay bodies. A
little more inFiring: Some salting is involved in all of the wood
firings I have used this slip in- generally about 1 1/2 - 3 pounds
per chamber. These are not super long firings -in the 14-18 hour
range, so a lot of the surface effect comes from the salt rather than
from a lot of ash. I have also used it in salt/soda and it looked
great-more orange than brown. I haven't used it with a real heavy
load of salt but if you try it I'd like yo know how it looks. Mix
just a little on the thin side and its works on bisque just as well
as on geenware I've been working up some variations using Helmer
kaolin, but haven't hit one I like yet. If you get a response about
the Avery will you pass it along? Thanks- if you try this out let me
know what you think. submitted by: John Anthony e-mail: JTRAX@AOL.com

Berry Rust glaze tests, the original formula, and the recalculated
fritted formula. They were fired to cone 10 Ox. buy my wife, Linda
Owen, in her trusty Skutt Kiln. Thanx Linda! The two glazes are
nearly identical. I didn't expect that, but ya never know. The
original formula with gerstley borate has more calcium-borate-iron
crystals floating in the matrix but you really can't see this without
a hand lens. A customer who has purchased pots with the original
formula would be hard pressed to tell the difference. I feel like
I've just taken the Pepsi Challenge!! The tests were fired on
porcelain. Four tiles were made of each glaze, eight in all and the
separate formulas were fired side by side in the top, middle, and
bottom of the kiln. No significant differences were seen. I might
also mention that I used English Bone Ash, and not Tri-Calcium Phos.
All the tiles were inspected with a hand lens and no crazing was
evident in either formula. A separate set has been fired to cone 10 R
but won't be available until tomorrow. That's about it for now,
e-mail me or post to clayart if I've forgotten to mention anythin,
and I probably have...it's my hobby! The formulas and receipes are

Use Pure Red Iron Oxide . This glaze gives a fairly intense cranberry
rust in the cone 7-10 range and is quite consistent in its results.
Every once in a while, when the glaze is thicker than normal, a pale
but distinctive green (a little like a pale chrome green) begins to
float on the surface. Any suggestions as to why? In addition, in
reference to an earlier note about the changing reds over time, I
think this red becomes somewhat brighter (and more red) the older the
glaze is. I don't yet use a lot of it so it sits for quite a while
(3-5 months). submitted by: Bob Kavanagh e-mail:

(I call it Steves Black because Steve Dominguez gave it to me) The

Increas e the Neph. Sy. as you wish to reduce the dryness and
increase the smooth quality of the glaze surface. This glaze works
very well in salt firing as well as red. fire and is especially nice
over a white clay body in salt. Only a thin glaze application is
necessary for coverage. I hope this glaze works well for you. David

Comments:
So here's a black glaze I've just developed, and I hereby throw to
the sharks It's probably unnecessarily complicated because it's a
hybrid of two other glazes. I think I'd rather have more RIO than
Cobalt, due to cost, but it's hard to knock success, and it breaks to
a nice blue when white is over it. -- Also, it wouldn't surprise me a
bit if the bone ash is superfluous The recent posts on foodsafe black
have prompted me to state my own opinion on black glazes. I think
black glazes need not be avoided totally for foodware, but common
sense argues that some blacks are better than others. If the base
glaze doesn't leach harmful chemicals, then one must concentrate on
combinations of oxides to produce the color with the least toxicity.
Though I've never seen an authoritative ordered list of nasty
chemicals, Red Iron Oxide, Cobalt Carb, and Copper Carb seem safer to
me than Manganese Dioxide, Nickel, Cadmium, and Chrome. From an old
Laurel's Kitchen cookbook, I read that Iron, Copper, Zinc, Manganese,
Cobalt, Chromium, Nickel, Tin, and even Vanadium are all trace
minerals essential for animals. I assert that most glazes release
traces at best of these minerals. However, we are caught in a world
which can measure in Parts per Billion, and all kinds of things look
significant at that level. I sometimes wonder how long the ozone
holes at the poles existed before we had the means to ascertain their
existence. Brad Sondahl http://www.camasnet.com/~asondahl

Comments:
This glaze is well balanced and has plenty of silica, but with all
those metals, I don't use it on food surfaces. My 'Rhodes Black' is
quite different than yours. I've modified it over the years. It uses
much less cobalt, and manganese and iron take up the slack. I've
tried cutting back even farther on cobalt, but this seems to be the
minimum. I use and like 3 pound coffee can for materials that are
used in small quantities. Because of the wide opening, so you can
easily scoop out material with a scoop. David Hendley Maydelle, Texas

Stable semimatt black. You can reduce the cobalt and increase the

Comments:
We use a glaze that looks exactly as you describe. it is a ^10 glaze
that can be used in either reduction or oxidation. It looks metallic
and satiny only in reduction, though. It is extremely stable and very
dependable... Its a great glaze. It even matures as early as ^6. Of
course its an Albany glaze. submitted by: Becky Shope e-mail:

----------------------------Original
message---------------------------- You probably got the recipe
already considering how long it takes me to research it, but here is
the one that we use at the school. Note that this recipe is set for
larger batches and all quantities are in grams. Good Luck Sorry I
forgot the particulars. And since I have neglected ( because I was
movingwhile working full time) to keep up with the group, I am now
looking at 802 messages, many of which I will not read and will have
to pick up the new threads as they come along. It is also why this
response is not more timely. Sloan's Black is a cone 10 glaze; as I
am sure that Vince or someone in this group has subsequently pointed
out. At (10) the glaze is a thick rich black with a silvery surface
finish. At (11) it is a very nice glossy black of the same thick
substance. Dave Durnford Box 2145 Missoula, Montana 59806 University

The original

I haven't had a source for Albany, I incorporated the glaze with an
Albany substitute formula out of CM: If this is not fired properly,
it boils in an enclosed container, but in my copper firings it always
seems to turn out. It turns a dark, cobalt blue over white base
glazes. It never breaks brown. good luck submitted by: Brian Voth

From Margaret Bohls. Fired cone 9 electric.
Very shiny black in oxidation, slightly metallic in reduction. I use this as a liner
for most things, but not with the Rexrode glazes as it sometimes shows up through
them if the pot is too thin, or if I've dripped it on the outside of the pot and
wiped it off before glazing the outside. For pots with light colored glazes on the
outside, I use a shiny white liner.

from Ellen Baker Rich glossy deep blue. no crazing (although it's
hard to tell with such a deep blue) Well I finally got around to
typing this thing up...^9-10 Blues Thank you one and all for all the
donated recipes. I only tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll
continue testing and reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes
were tested on #900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One
side of the test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia
Bringle's wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three
thicknesses on a heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a
(hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08
and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown.
Any time potash or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball
clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium
with Strontium. All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel
well. Your results will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test
before use. Tracy Wilson Saltbox Pottery 4 Shaw Rd. Woolwich, ME

 Clay reduction at cone/08, then slight reduction increasing with
time until the final total reduction, followed by a period of
reoxidation

*Do you experience problems with the raw glaze?
 No

*What is your water pH?
 7.2

*Any other comments?
 Glaze named by my colleagues as "Bass Bleu" - Bass having been my
nickname since my teen years, Bass is also the name that I use to
sign my pots.

Matt glaze almost black where thin, army green where thick. Nice
colonial (bluish slate) over white slip. All the glazes
were tested on #900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One
side of the test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia
Bringle's wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three
thicknesses on a heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a
(hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08
and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown.
Any time potash or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball
clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium
with Strontium. All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel
well. Tracy Wilson Saltbox Pottery 4 Shaw Rd. Woolwich, ME

Comments:
This glaze has to be fired as you would fire a copper red glaze
otherwise you will not get the beautiful colour and texture. If the
glaze is clear then you are not applying it thick enough. Also, I
guess I should mention that it should be fired to cone 9-10.
Hopefully it works for you as it has for me. Happy testing! submitted

Comments:
 It is shiny and breaks brown to
blue My students keep it rather thick in the bucket for the desired
blue and it doesn't seem to run very much at all. It is a blue glaze
but a nice blue glaze and it works well with a lot of other glazes.

Below is a glaze I have been using for years, I got it out of CM.
Likes a thick dip and I also double dip rims. Does not like a long
soak at cone 10. Looks best at a good cone 9 (slightly satin with
shiny spots) or 10 ( glossy blue with mottling and crystals) Good
Luck! Barbara Murphy, Waterloo, Ontario dave murphy

I have a problem with the following glaze that I hope some of the
glaze chemistry Guru's out there might be able to help me with. I
have used this glaze for years now with good success but it requires
cone 10 flat and 11 tipping to mature. I would like to lower the
temp. to a 9 flat and cone 10 tipping but don't really know where to
begin. I fire a 35 cubic ft. Minnesota Flat Top with natural gas. If
anyone can get me started, I would be grateful. Also, I have been
trying to paint with stains over this glaze. I use them mixed with
water and gerstly borate but can't get a smooth flow going. I was
wondering how mixing the stains right in with some of the Buttermilk
would work. Does anyone have suggestions??? Many thanks for your
time. I love this group and have learned so much from reading your
shares. Gloria Davidson <myturn@jetstream.net> My Turn Pottery

Comments:
can also use Custer feldspar instead of G-200 spar. I may have
lowered the temperature too much - so - mix this one (500 grams) and
test it in a cool part of your kiln (with large cones beside it. Then
mix equal parts (by volume) with your original. This will give you
the recipe between the two. If it is better than either the new one I
am sending add each ingrediant together (fome my new one and your old
one) to get the recipe for the middle one. Gerstley borate 10.5 +
13.0 = 23.5 divided by 2 =11.75 for instance. By the way both glazes
are seriously short of Alumina and Silica and oversupplied with
Magnesium so don't consider this a durable glaze. There is not a
toxicity problem because there are no problematic oxides in the glaze
- just be careful what you mix with and put under or over this glaze
in areas that will come in contact with food. Ron Roy Toronto, Canada

Comments:
Spanish red iron oxide is prefered. I have found that my blue celadon
glaze, which is very similar to others given to you, likes all the
reduction I can give it. I fire blue celadon pieces in the same
firings I go for carbon trapping with my shinos. The extra reduction
along with a good thick application of the blue celadon glaze, I
think, encourages the bubbles trapped in the glaze which gives it a
nice softness to the glossy glaze. I introduce a heavy reduction at
cone 010 through to cone 06 then lighten up a bit for the rest of the
firing. Also, drips melt out and do not show. Despite the only
average amount of clay in the glaze, but high amount of feldspar and
flint, the glaze does not run at all at cone 10 EPK helps and use
Spanish Red Iron oxide and do not get any speckling. I feel the blue
celadon glaze is much nicer on porcelain. You may need to add a
suspender, I don't though. I have substituted Strontium Carbonate for
half of the Barium and all of the Barium at 1 part Barium to 3/4
parts Strontium and received just as nice results. I have the
understanding from talking with other colleagues that the glaze
should be safe from Barium poisoning because it is a glossy glaze
where enough silica molecules have combined with the Barium molecules
to make it stable. But, I have never had it tested. Does anyone know
if this is true or not? Please reply. Enjoy, Cone 10 down, submitted

also from Alfred Looks like a pretty typical celedon to me.. glossy
with no crazing Well I finally got around to typing this thing
up...^9-10 Blues Thank you one and all for all the donated recipes. I
only tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll continue testing
and reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were tested on
#900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the
test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's
wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three thicknesses on a
heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a (hard)^9 (10
tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze
reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown. Any time potash
or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 .
Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium with Strontium.
All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel well. Your results
will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test before use. tracy

If we were to use Tom Coleman's recipe hereabouts we of necessity
would use G200 feldspar (custer is hard to get). So, TC's RCP comes
out like this: Firstly, as noted we'd use a different feldspar (still
a K one tho') and we switch from barium carbonate to strontium
carbonate since Fusion (Ontario Potters Assn) has a campaign going
(launched by Ron Roy) to avoid the use of barium over 5% content in
the glaze mix. I fully expect this version to perform like the
original. Both might crackle on a tight porcelain. Should be fun
trying the three. Cheers TomBuck submitted by: Tom Buck e-mail:

The glaze that is as old as dirt. it is published in the leech book
as old. Use 4% iron + or - depending on color / green to blue if you
decorate...put iron design between layers of glaze. very nice. the
first glaze i ever made...fired in the first soft brick kiln i ever
made. and that was before i had ever seen a soft brick kiln. remember
the name Jim McKinnel. one of the first to build soft brick kilns in

Cost/kg 0.24 Si:Al 7.71 SiB:Al 7.71 Expan 6.72 My celedon formula is
posted at the end of this message. It's a lime green celedon the way
I color it. I use 5% of a native Oregon clay that is very high in
Iron. You could maybe get the same color with 5% or so of Alberta
slip, or Albany. 1 to 2% additions of red or black iron will give
celedons. It is often said that black iron oxide gives bluer
celedons, so you might want to try that. It is important to keep a
glaze's content of titanium at a near zero level to develop blue
celedons as well. Titanium will encourage green. I ran your Neph Sy
celedon through Insight and you could reduce the crazing and maybe
eliminate it by the direct substitution of potash feldspar for the
Neph Sy. You might want to try both Custer and G-200. Custer is
higher in silica and would be the most effective one to lower the
glazes expansion. G-200 will give a bit better melt I
think..........Craig craig martell <ashglaze@teleport.com>

This is a recipe that I have had nothing but good luck with.
To get the best effect, I use it on grolleg porcelain: The phosphorus
in the wood ash is important for creating the minute bubbles in the
glaze which give this glaze its blue color. You might check out
Tichane's book on Celadon Blues, he explains this phenomenon.

>Does anyone have a reliable recipe for a Chun Blue or other Blue that

Yes! I have been using this glaze for some years - it originated with
Derek Emms and was published in Ceramic Review. Needs reduction ^9 -
10 The firing temp affects it considerably. Works well over Tenmoku
type glazes or dark bodies. The colour is an optical effect and the
dark body helps the colour. pierre brayford

Originally specified Raval Feldspar (see below). I have a Chun blue
that works well over dark slips and glazes (tenmoku), I'm not sure
though if our materials here in the Philippines will match yours, but
it might be worth a try. Raval Feldspar is almost identical to
Cornwall Stone. If too thin the glaze is mauve transparent, if too
thick opaque off-white. The trick is to get the thickness just right
to produce the opalescent blue. Jon Pettyjohn Manila jon@mozcom.com

This glaze has to be fired as you would fire a copper red glaze
otherwise you will not get the beautiful colour and texture. If the
glaze is clear then you are not applying it thick enough. Also, I
guess I should mention that it should be fired to cone 9-10.
Hopefully it works for you as it has for me. Happy testing! submitted

Comments:
From Andrew Martin's plaster book, "Mold Making & Slip Casting". "Annette uses this slip to cast ver soft
gestured forms. I have used this slip for forms that put a lot of stres on the
slip as it dries. In these cases I had lots of cracking appear in the bisuqe. As a
body it tends toward non-plasticiy, so more elaborate forms woudl benefit from a
slip w/higher ball clay content. Low ball clay in this tends to be more
translucent."

Comments:
I've been using Coile Hooven's recipe for clear glaze for porcelain
with good results. It doesn't crackle/craze (eye of the beholder
thing) and can run the gamut from non-milky matte at lower temp to a
nice high gloss at c.10-11. (The recipe lists it as Cone 10 Clear)
(use a mortar & pestle to grind Cornwall stone before mixing) I use
this over a porcelain throwing body from Val Cushing's notebook
(published and distributed during Summer Class 1993): GROLLEG 55 (1
full bag) KONA 4 SPAR 20 FLINT 12 PYRAX 13 MACALOID 2 (or Bentonite:
let sit with water in mixer overnight. Add dry mix next day) As with
any porcelain, the longer it ages, the better. I make mine ideally 6
months in advance, wrapped a la the Alfred Roll in 35# batches. Hope
this helps. Tricia CHATARY@HOPE.CIT.HOPE.EDU

Comments:
 By itself without colorants, this glaze is fairly clear, not
perfectly transparent at cone 6-7 but becoming glass like at 8-9.
 It is smooth to the touch, pleasing to feel.  Very tolerant and
forgiving.
 It is somewhat uninteresting by itself although it is as stable as
you can imagine.

 Add colorants for the real action!

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 8-10 years

*Where is it used?  Bob Kavanagh's studio.

*Where did this recipe come from?  I developed it over a few years.

*What do you like most about this glaze?  It is stable, adaptable, accepts diverse
colors well, applies easily, is virtually fault free - a good friend.

*Does this glaze tend to craze/crawl/pinhole/etc.?
 With the majolica, it may crawl if the glaze is applied VERY thickly.

*How do different firing temperatures/atmospheres affect the glaze?
 It may be used in reduction as well as in oxidation, although I now
use it only in oxidation.  I developed it while I was working in a
reducing atmosphere.  The differences between oxidation and reduction
lie in the clarity of the glaze (much clearer in oxidation) and of
course the impact of reduction on iron bearing oxides.

*How does the glaze behave on different clay bodies?
 Very adaptable to stoneware, porcelain, rough, smooth, etc.

*What consistency should the glaze be for pouring/dipping?
 Dip hand into bucket; can hardly see skin under glaze on hand: thick
cream.

*How thickly should the glaze be applied to the pot?
 Varies with oxide addition.  Likes to be moderately thick for
richest results.

*How does this glaze interact with other glazes?
 I had not been happy with combining it with others, so I stopped. It
can be layered with itself with different colorants in each layer.

*What is your kiln type and size?
 10 cubic foot, Tucker's Cone Art, electric

*How do you typically fire?
 0 to 212 in two hours: hold 10 minutes.
 212 to 1040 at about 300 degrees an hour.
 very slowly from 1040 to 1070.
 as quickly as possible from 1070 to 2100.
 about 150 degrees an hour until cone 7-8.

*Do you experience problems with the raw glaze?
 no problems

as matt as you can probably
get for a clear. I have a couple of others that I recently designed
but I don't have them in my database yet. Try this one. I think you'll
like it. Unless you put opacifiers in it it should stay transparent
with the additions of most colorants. Regards, June june perry

I am having a problem with my clear liner. On all our cone 10+
firings, in ox or red., we have a great clear. In salt fire, however,
if the vapor hits the inside of, say a bowl, or if the clear is on
the outside of the pot, then it crazes horribly. If we prevent the
vapor from hitting the surface of the clear, it does well. (or if it
is very thin on the outside of the pot). This glaze does very well in
our wood fire kiln-no crazing at all. It will be matt if it doesn't
get a good cone 10 if that helps any. Pat Chesney

This glaze is wonderful over porcelain. Clear with maybe a tint of green if your clay is
dark. Made up with OM 4 instead it is perfectly clear. Does not
crackle unless pretty thick. Can be used very thinly, covers well.
Real good with colorants, either under or over. Copper goes red.

Comments:
Originally specified Cornish stone insteadh of Cornwall stone. I
routinely use a glaze which I fire to cone 8 oxidation which is matt
and which I apply over coloured slips. These colours show through the
glaze, if that meets your requirement of 'clear'. I use it over a
buff stoneware and describe the colour as light oatmeal. If an area
is double dipped it comes out whiter so it is sensitive to thickness
and drips or runs want to be avoided unless the variation in
thickness and colour suits your pot. If I fire above cone 8 it
progresses to being shiny. I think it would be the same in reduction.

Comments:
 Revised by adding more flint to make a slightly lower thermal
expansion and stop crazing. This was the best clear I found in
testing about 9 or 10 clear recipes. Many were good clears but had a
slight celadon tinge. This one is stable, clear and light grey over
white stoneware with no appreciable greenish hue. No crazing over the
shop clay bodies  (commercially available west coast stoneware
clays). RB SDSU 1994

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 two years

 San Diego State University

*Where did this recipe come from?
 originally Meloy Clear (origin unknown, maybe Pete Meloy?) Looks to
be a variation on the classic 4-3-2-1 Leach clear.

*What do you like most about this glaze?
 very clear, applies well, few glaze faults, cheap to make, non-toxic.

*Is this glaze reliable?
 yes

*Does this glaze tend to craze/crawl/pinhole/etc.?
 no

*How do different firing temperatures/atmospheres affect the glaze?
 may work as low as cone 6 but with reduced clarity.

*How does the glaze behave on different clay bodies?
 no problems

*What consistency should the glaze be for pouring/dipping?
 average consistency.

*How thickly should the glaze be applied to the pot?
 thin to medium thickness for best clarity, thinner on porcelain.

*How does this glaze interact with other glazes?
 works well with most other stoneware glazes.

*What is your kiln type and size?
 Alpine 30 cu. ft. updraft gas kiln

*How do you typically fire?
 12-16 hour heating, reduction from cone 06 to cone 8, more neutral
atmosphere after that. no soak. 24-36 hour cooling.

Comments:
 This is an excellent transparent/clear glaze that is very hard and
durable. I have used it over colored slip, with sgraffito into the
slip and with oxides and stains brushed over it and the decorations
don't move. This glaze can be brought to the VERY edge of the foot
without moving. I use it inside of all my functional work and when
decorating with colored slips I use it over the whole surface of the
pot.
 It is an excellent glaze that will always perform well especially
when you are in a hurry to get things fired. No surprises.
 Food-safe.

*Variations:
 Can add 1/4 % Copper Carbonate for Light Green in Oxidation ^9-10
firing.

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 Almost 20 years

*Where is it used?
 In my studio

*Where did this recipe come from?
 I got this recipe from Kieth Campbell from Ontario, Canada but
believe that it is an Alfred Univ. glaze originally

*What do you like most about this glaze?
 There are no surprises and I can count on it every time. Its food
safe.

*Is this glaze reliable?
 Very

*Does this glaze tend to craze/crawl/pinhole/etc.?
 Crazes if applied TOO THICK.

*How do different firing temperatures/atmospheres affect the glaze?
 Electric/Oxidation or Gas fired/Reduction or neutral fire are all
equally as good.

*How does the glaze behave on different clay bodies?
 On porcelain and white stoneware it is clear white. On buff and or
red bodies it goes somewhat grey because of the iron in the clays.
Very pleasent on all clays. I have tested and used on all the above
clays.

*What consistency should the glaze be for pouring/dipping?
 The consistancy of my glazes is like homo milk. The normal
consistancy. I dip to the count of 5 - 10.

*How thickly should the glaze be applied to the pot?
 Normal.
 I spray this glaze as well to 1/16th of an inch or better.

*How does this glaze interact with other glazes?
 I like it the way it is for my work.  Test your glazes and see what
happens. I have sprayed other glazes on rims etc. and all worked fine.

*What is your kiln type and size?
 30 cu.ft. downdraft gas kiln.

*How do you typically fire?
 Heating...pilots (4) on over night or at least a 9 hour period.
Burners (4) on low over night or till cone 07 is down. Turn up the
burners to 1/2 way mid. reduce kiln for 30 to 45 mins. depending on
the weather.  Cut the reduction (open dampers to almost open and a
light reduction till cone 10 falls. Clear kiln, shut off and seal.
 Slow 36 hour cool before cracking the door and work comes out in
about 48 hours.

*Do you experience problems with the raw glaze?
 NO....this glaze can be stirred easily even after 8 weeks of non use
and stays stirred for long periods of time while glazing. I make a
large green garbage pail of my well used glazes and they last me for
a yr. or more.  No smells etc.

*What is your water pH?
 City water.

*Any other comments?
 Try this glaze...it will be a main stay in your studio. ;>}}}

Comments:
(Mile Hi in Denver has Ilmenite). Likes a fast cooling to develop
that electric blue. One dip gives you brown, two dips a deep blue.
Tends to break on ridges. Where real heavy you get white. Flows quite
a bit, especially combined with other glazes. Watch your bottom
feet,try to give it a good foot or a strong ridge to stop flow.
Tapering the bottom edge with a straight edge helps too. Otherwise
your shelf will be a beautiful shade of blue. If thick, tends to
pinhole, likes to dry and be rubbed out before firing. Tempermental
glaze---can crawl just enough to make you crazy generally under rims
and on the inside of rims....probably is thicker there and shrinks
when drying. To Mix, we've found it best to dissolve the Cornwall
first and let set a bit, then add everything else. Screen through a
40 once and an 80mesh twice for finest crystalization. This is a
compilation of several background messages re: the Conrad Moonlight.
We use Conrads Moonlight (which was discussed about 6 months ago
here) with about 1/2%cobalt Carb. added. It's a cone 10 glaze. I
first started using it in electric firing, and a year ago switched to
gas. At first in the gas, it was muddier and tended toward rutile
blue-green. Then, experimenting, we cooled the kiln faster to match
the curve of the electrics. Voila, nice sharp crystals and blue. It
also seems to be quite sensitive to temperature, over fire it and it
grabs iron from anywhere and goes blue green or brownish. I also
might note that it is quite sensitive to application. It must go on
thick to develop a good blue. (even sometimes giving almost purple).
Thick in the bucket, double dip as soon as the sheen leaves, dry
completely, then rub lightly everywhere and especially on compund
curves. This is a Cornwall recipe and tends to crawl if not thorughly
bonded to the clay surface. The thickness required doesn't help.
Don't know what it might do at c6 but if you can get it there, the
above notes might help. One note, I mentioned that it's sensitive to
temp. It's happiest between 9-1/2 and 10-1/2. Also we use it on a
white stoneware. On iron body clays, it tends toward blue green or
brown-green...not too pretty. Joyce brought up a good pointThe rutile
blue Moonlight from Conrad (G375) is r understand, most rutile blues
are. The way we work around this is to provide a ridge at the foot
and, when Betsy applies the glaze, she takes a stainless rib and
carves a taper into the ridge. Sounds time consuming, and is, but it
goes pretty fast after you've done (not had) a few. The main time we
lose pieces from running now is where there's an overlap with another
glaze, especially Temmoku. But by keeping it high on the pot, it can
be controlled. Good Luck. It can be a fantastic rutile blue, best
I've seen. I'll be off the list for a week, at Rosen, but will pull
digests during the week. Tom Wirt Clay Coyote Pottery Hutchinson, MN

from H.S. days at Gould Academy I'd had this glaze mixed up for years
and retried it. Very dry matt deep turquoise blue/green going to teal
where thick. Beige where thin. Didn't react well to CB slip Well I
finally got around to typing this thing up...^9-10 Blues Thank you
one and all for all the donated recipes. I only tested 31 out of
almost 100 I received. I'll continue testing and reporting as the
winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were tested on #900 Miller clay which
is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the test tile was brushed with
a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's wet/dry white slip. Each glaze
was dipped in three thicknesses on a heavily textured tile. All tiles
were fired to a (hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body
reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9 then a quick reox.
before shutdown. Any time potash or Custer spar is called for, I used
G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I substituted 75% of the
amount of Barium with Strontium. All kaolin is EPK. Remember...
glazes don't travel well. Your results will probably be TOTALLY
different. Please test before use. Tracy Wilson Saltbox Pottery 4

Here is a salt-fire glaze I plan to use when I get my Geil kiln with
portholes for soda/salt firing. This came with a video I purchased
made by Gordon Hutchens, who is beyond excellent. I think it's
cricket to share since it's sold for public consumption. Gordon's
video on Raku Firing, and his two on Soda/Salt firing are superb.
Along with many posts of wise, thoughtful guidance from Clayarters
plus Jack Troy's book (through the library) I'm gonna be ready when
that kiln gets here...a long time from now. I can't believe the time
some of you took in your responses. I can be grateful, though. Thank

Comments:
 This glaze is a very wonderful red, but like all reds, it's very
temperamental.  A heavy reduction at the end is recommended.  Firing
time should be between 12 and 20 hours.  Not enough reduction during
the firing will cause the glaze to be clear.

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 I've used this glaze off and on for 2 years.

*Where is it used?
 University of Houston

*Where did this recipe come from?
 This could be a Carlton Ball glaze, but I'm not sure.

*Is this glaze reliable?
 The firing process is what's difficult about this glaze.  You should
start reducing around cone 5 and do a heavy reduction at the end.

*Does this glaze tend to craze/crawl/pinhole/etc.?
 You should make sure the surface of the pot is clean of dust.

*How do different firing temperatures/atmospheres affect the glaze?
 Too muddy of a reduction will cause the copper to burn out.  Too
little will cause the glaze to run clear.

*How does the glaze behave on different clay bodies?
 White or light bodies are best, but it does work on red clay bodies.

*What consistency should the glaze be for pouring/dipping?
 Once you have mixed the glaze with water, you need to use it that
day. A thick application is best. Dipped if possible.  Once mixed the
elements settle out and will not work if remixed.

*How thickly should the glaze be applied to the pot?
 The thicker the better, but the glaze will run.

*How does this glaze interact with other glazes?
 It works great with rutile glazes.

*What is your kiln type and size?
 I used an updraft reduction kiln about 9 cubic feet.

*How do you typically fire?
 I build temperature up to a cone 6 then reduce there for an hour,
then go the rest of the way up reducing all the way.  With a heavy
reduction at the end.  Then let it cool completely with all holes
plugged and dampers shut tight.

*Do you experience problems with the raw glaze?
 Keep materials dry until you are ready to use.  It will not stay
mixed and the chemicals alter if left wet for more than 48 hours.

One of the 'Copper Reds' that I have used most consistantly with good
results, is one which from my reading seems to be credited to Both
Tom Coleman and Brisson. I fire this glaze to cone 10 just tipping.
If over-fired the red starts to burn out. The glaze is a strong RED,
which under heavy reduction and where it is thick tends toward an oil
spot effect. Be careful with thick pplication at the bottom of the
piece, as there is a fine point at the end of the firing where the
glaze tends to run. Presistance with this glaze is well worthwhile.

from David Cuzick- (Silica -the finer the better to reduce crazing)
note the very small percentage of copper carb. this glaze does not need too
much reduction, it is a purple red. The formulation may need
adjusting for some clay bodies because of crazing.  David Cuzick

Oxblood needs to be thick mp. Begin reduction at cone 012 fairly heavy and
then go into moderate reduction after cone 05 drops. Continue
moderate to light reduction until cone 10 then a brief oxidation
period of about 10 minutes. If you over-reduce it will be liver brown
and under reduced will be celadon. One solution to a problem (uneven,
spotty reduction and under reduced)we had was to turn down the gas
and air. To slow it down and reduce at the above schedule. We were
firing in an Alpine updraft with blowers and just running the same
schedule as the people who fired before us. 4 pounds pressure (natural gas) with the
blowers at 70. Something like that. But we reduced the gas and the
air and the firing was 100% better. No more spotty reduction or
unreduced pots. (I kind of miss those unwanted interesting results

this glaze needs good reduction to turn red. I use it on porcelain
most of the time. Dear fellow potters, Here are two CONE 10 reduction
copper red glazes. I have used these glazes for years, they do work,
but must be fired correctly to get the red. I will not go into the
correct firing of copper reds because it depens so much on the kiln
and burner set up you have. I have found that some kilns simply do
not produce good copper reds by any method I was able to fire them
while others produced reds easly. I fire in an Olsen 36 cu. ft. up
draft soft brick kiln with only moderate reduction and get good
consistant bright copper reds t hroughout the kiln. Good luck and
good potting. David Cuzick Claycuzian@aol.com

another we commonly use at the Potters Studio in Berkeley. It gives a

red, but is pretty reliable. We start the reduction early in the

(or Maine) Feldspar Copper oxide (0.3% of batch), Tin oxide (1.0% of
batch). The good 'ol Chinese Stoneware Glazes book by Grebanier has
allot about copper reds and peach blooms. The one formula that is for
cone 10 (most should be fired to no more that cone 9) is below. It is
a deep, semi-mat red; (when fired to cone 9, it produces a peach
bloom, somewhat more mat.) Where thick it develops a slight bluish
opalescence. Best results are achieved with a white slip under the
glaze. Also note the Godfrey or Maine feldspar: I have looked
everywhere and know now that it is no longer available. The best
substitute, as I know it, is neph syenite. Also note it's a very
runny glaze! If you decide on some Cone 9 fireings, let me know, or
try to get your hands on a copy of Grebanier. Good luck.. source for

(May use Custer instead of G-200.)

Quite variable. At its best a beautiful slate blue with small crystals
(1/16) peppering the surface (green centers w/ white halo). slightly
fluid. Narrow firing range, just Knock down ^10 and leave it at that,
soak it slightly cooler. I usually soak between 2050-2150 F ( I think
my pyrometer is a little low). Soak time is important. Longer soak
and the crystals completely cover the surface. I found a 1/2 hr soak
was about right. beautiful no matter how you fire it. I've sold a lot
of this. I use Dave's porcelain from Laguna. Dean McRaine

No.137 (Sept/Oct 1992) by Derek Clarkson. His recipes are all based
on the previous approximate percentages. The china clay was listed as
China Clay/Alumina Colouring Oxides - cobalt, copper and manganese
most often used, followed by iron and nickel. The article gives ten
specific recipes around the above with colour illustrations to show
the very dramatic crystal effects. For each of these examples the
article also gives the firing details of the times of crystal growing
periods and the diameter of the largest crystal. There is also a mass
of detail on the application of the glazes with copious
illustrations. Derek Clarkson says that Porcelain bodies are the most
suitable. White stoneware bodies can also be used but the crystals
are smaller. If you are unable to get sight of a copy of this article

at the end.

Comments:
Reliable "autumn leaves" glaze. The same color as the leaves that we
have to pick up every fall, our house is surrounded by maple trees.
The name of the street we live on is Des Erables and maple in french
is érable. It is the same glaze base as Mag.

*How long have you been using this glaze?  4 years

*Where did this recipe come from?  My own experimentation

*What do you like most about this glaze?
 It is the very special colors wich may vary depending on the color
of the underlying claybody and on the amount of reduction

*Is this glaze reliable?  100%

*Does this glaze tend to craze/crawl/pinhole/etc.?  No.It has no surface flaws.

*How does the glaze behave on different clay bodies?
Darker on darker bodies and lighter on light bodies.

*What consistency should the glaze be for pouring/dipping?  Thin to medium

*How thickly should the glaze be applied to the pot?  Thin to medium

*What is your kiln type and size?
 Downdraft,propane and atmospheric,60 cubic feet

*How do you typically fire?
 Oxidation until clay reduction at cone 08, then light reduction
increasing with time until the final and total reduction of 20
minutes, followed by a period of reoxidation of 20 minutes.

Thank you one and all for all the donated recipes. I only tested 31
out of almost 100 I received. I'll continue testing and reporting as
the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were tested on #900 Miller clay
which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the test tile was
brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's wet/dry white slip.
Each glaze was dipped in three thicknesses on a heavily textured
tile. All tiles were fired to a (hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction
firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9
then a quick reox. before shutdown. Any time potash or Custer spar is
called for, I used G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I
substituted 75% of the amount of Barium with Strontium. All kaolin is
EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel well. Your results will probably
be TOTALLY different. Please test before use. Tracy Wilson Saltbox

Here is a GOLD LINER glaze that was used at the University of
Louisville. I am not sure that it is a Shaner glaze, but we used a
lot of his reds, yellows and oranges, so I'm guessing that it might
be. As I remember, this glaze gave a completely different surface on
porcelain than stoneware. Both were very nice though. doug Douglas E.

Amaco underglaze or a slip made from the clay body, bisqued to ^06
and then put Translucent Gray-White semi-matte over it, pinholing
occurs only over the underglaze or slip. I suspect the problem lies
with the gases escaping from the slip and underglaze but I don't know
how to deal with this. I have a Paragon kiln with a computer control

This is one of my favorite
green glazes that I used successfully for a number of years on c10
production ware. It's a medium to dark green gloss that breaks nicely
on dark clays; pools dark green to sometimes blue. Looks good on
porcelain also. ***Castle Rock red is (was) a clay mined in Castle
Rock, CO, and used to be available from Mile-Hi Ceramics in Denver.
It was a sorta dull mustard yellow in the unfired state and fired to
a toasty terra cotta red at c1-2. A friend of mine substituted Red
Art for the CRR and the results were much the same (though not
exactly). submitted by: Patrick Veerkamp e-mail:

Comments:
one Type: Orton Clay Color/Type: Brown stoneware Clarity: Opaque
Crystals: None Clustered, Dispersed Bubbles Within Glaze: No Glaze
Flow: Little flow Glaze Type: MEASURED Thermal Expansion: - What
Makes This Glaze Unique: It is an extremely intriguing glaze because
of the variety of color and surface quality that it yields depending
on the clay color, thickness of the glaze and whether or not it
overlaps another glaze. - Firing data: only tested at cone 6 and 7 -
Surface quality variations: Applied thickly, the color is almost a
gun metal black with a waxy to satin matt finish over buff, brown and
porcelain clays. Lighter coats, especially over buff clays yield
greens and blues and almost a glossy surface. - Kiln size,
manufacture and type: Skutt 1027 - Effects of firing to different
cones: - Coloring oxides, stains and opacifiers tested: - Known glaze
flaws: - Apparent viscosity for pouring and dipping: - Application
thickness: Depends on the desired effect. It can be dipped, but
brushing yields more interesting effects and greater color variety. -
Effects on different clay bodies: See above - Interactive effect with
other glazes: One of the most exciting effects develops when using
this over a white glaze covering porcelain clay. An extremely light
coat brushed on yields bright sea blues and greens with patches of
almost gold. Over the same white glaze on buff clay, the cobalt blue
dominates. (The white glaze I use tends to turn virtually clear over
buff or brown clay, leaving a glossy, faintly white blue finish.) -
Specific gravity of glaze for pouring and dipping: - Water

Variations --
For dark Speckled green on stoneware, hunter on
porcelain add: 2 % red iron oxide .25 Cobalt oxide .50 Chrome oxide
Another beautiful green would be to add: 1% red iron oxide .25 cobalt
oxide 1 chrome oxide 5% Tin oxide For a great warm, speckled, reddish
brown, add: 2% Red Iron Oxide and 2% Copper Oxide. This base recipe
makes a good blue celadon with the addtion of 2% Black Iron oxide. If
you want it bluer you can do a variation with 1-2% black iron oxide
and .25% cobalt carbonate. It is also a good rutile blue with
variations from 1-4% Rutile and !-2% Yellow ochre, or Red Iron.
oxide. This base is also reactive with copper so you can get nice
flashing with just a hint to copper brushwork on a pot on the celadon
colors. You may want to do some variations using another sodaspar as
well.

Comments:
Gee, I got worried that Mel had been chased out of town. I get tired
of shadow boxing with myself and worried that a worthy sparing
partner had gone off to Nagano to play hockey. The definition of a
Canadian is a guy that is 50 years old and still thinks he is going
to make the NHL. To welcome him back with his thoughts on a web page
I am offering him some green Mel was waiting for Ron Roy to supply a
Celedon glaze. Rather than wait I'm going to give you ours except we
call it green. I could send you a nice temmoku glaze that we use and
guess what we call it. You guessed it , that's our black glaze. Mel
had mentioned some time ago that he was not getting the iron content
right. We found that with this glaze what makes it spectacular is the
seiving. We first seive thru 80 mesh and then twice thru 150 mesh. It
is dynamite on porcelain . Good with oxides or shows up details under
the surface. Also very good on stoneware. Nice hard, durable glaze
Cone 9-10. May your pots be green and your leaves celedon. Cheers,

Comments:
I have a revised glaze for you. But first let
me tell you a bit about your current recipe. As you gave it, this
glaze is a high alkaline earth glaze, a bit low in alumina, but
otherwise smack in the midfire range c4-c7. It's unusual in the fact
that it has 5.2% Titanium oxide and this will cause problems,
pinholing being one of them. The glaze is prone to pinholing because
there's too much carbonate in the raw materials. The COE at 7.2 is a
bit high but it could well fit a stoneware of 6.+ COE. Ok. Here's the
new version. This version closely matches the Unity Formula of your
original. I have switched to Wollastonite and Talc to reduce the
carbonate level. You could also use copper oxide black 40 units, or
copper oxide red, 35 units and reduce the carbonate a bit more but
the copper oxides are very hard to disperse and you may get speckling
if you do not thoroughly screen the mix. The gerstley borate is
higher than I'd wish but if I use Ferro frit 3134 (or 3195) in its
place the alumina goes up almost 50% and the KNaO content goes up
too, increasing the COE to 7.7 or higher; the glaze could craze
markedly. The best course would be to try this mix first and see if
it gives you the blue-green you want without pinholes. If out-gassing
is still a problem, then perhaps one could use half Gerstley B and
half 3195. I suggest, if this sits ok with you, that you go this
route and see what happens and only make a further revision if
needed. Tom Buck <aa563@main.freenet.hamilton.on.ca> Sana's Green is
actually a C10R recipe that I posted here a while back because I was
having pinhole problems with it. Here's the
C10R version that Tom put together for me.  Richard Los Angeles from richard gralnik

Another good green for c10 tableware. (I would recommend substituting
strontium carb 5.25; I've never tried it this way but I'm sure it
would produce the same results) High gloss transparent medium green.
Not as much character as the first glaze but hard as a rock and works
well with slips under. Both glazes are fired in reduction atmosphere.

I was testing many different combinations of materials in a glaze and
ran across this very nice grey glaze It's a very simple glaze, but I
got a real nice satiny grey that fit perfectly and did not run even
where thick. In my tests I always referred to it as E#3. I was using
a white stoneware throwing body and fired it in an updraft cone 10
reduction, with a strong body reduction at 06 and a light/moderate
reduction from 06 to 10. Hope this helps. E-mail me privately at

Recently, I was lucky enough to be given a great recipe for a cone 10
Albany-type clear with a nice glassy transparent surface. I believe
it was one of Val Cushing's old glazes (what great glaze doesn't seem
to have come from Val's extensive glaze coffers?!). Anyhow, having
replaced the Albany with Alberta, I have been running color tests on
this glaze for the past 6 months. Will it ever stop- I doubt it. One
of the most interesting surfaces, both in color and in texture, was
done with 5% Laguna Forest Green stain. I have no idea where this
stain came from- unfortunately the bag looked rather old. Keep it
pretty ding-dang thin, else you're likely to be chipping shelves.

from Naama Satin deep blue going to tan where thick. Feels wonderful

Blues Thank you one and all for all the donated recipes. I only
tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll continue testing and
reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were tested on #900
Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the test
tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's wet/dry
white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three thicknesses on a heavily
textured tile. All tiles were fired to a (hard)^9 (10
tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze
reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown. Any time potash
or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 .
Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium with Strontium.
All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel well. Your results
will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test before use. Tracy

Should read 7 ingredients totalling 100% plus two additives.Color: on
porcelain in OX THIN = warm rusty beige breaking to copper rust on
rim & ridges THICK = warm beige w/ copper rusty rim Both thin & thick
show very fine rusty flecks On porcelain in REDTN THICK = almost sea
foam greenish w/ orangey copper rust w/ flecks where thin I consider
this to be a glaze which in OX looks like REDTN - for those of you
who pine for that. As I previously mentioned, in OX put it over
PORCELAIN SHINO & you get a funky rough surface in solid copper w/
fine rusty flecks - this is thin. Thick edges are unattractive (?)
white. If firing in REDTN, slow cool for max. orange. This is a
variant of the famous Mamo glaze. If you want to try other colorants,
drop out the tin (it's incl. to promote ornage) from the base as well
as dropping the RIO & bone ash. But BE CAREFUL - this glaze pulls
apart if too thick in big fatal crawls. I abandoned it as a white for
this reason & I swear it once pulled so badly it broke (?) the pot it
was on. This was not the above version however. Good luck & enjoy.

GREAT BLUE/RED /DARK BLUE! My experience with copper red is that what
matters most is to begin reduction at cone 012 fairly heavy and then
go into moderate reduction after cone 05 drops. Continue moderate to
light reduction until cone 10 then a brief oxidation peroid of about
10 minutes. If you over reduce it will be liver brown and under
reduced will be celadon.  submitted

glaze My text immedaitely following reads: Bright transparent glazes
allow colors to show well but in general....etc This appears on pg
47. of my typescript. Unfortunately, pg. 46 is missing of my copy as
well as pp. 40-44. I inherited the typescript from a teacher and am
delighted I've got it (it even includes class responsibilities and
where to keep tools take care of glazes etc.) but I sure would like
the missing pages. If anybody has them, I'd be thrilled to send a
self-addressed stamped envelope for a copy and the xeroxing costs. At
this point, I haven't any info on the colorants to add to the glazes?

I regularly use a glaze at cone 8 over coloured slips which is matt
but lets the coloured slips show through. This is in oxidation over a
buff stoneware glaze. In case this sounds what you are after and
interesting to you, I give the recipe below, which I have translated
from the UK sourced materials that I use, into North American
materials. Actually the difference is very small. David Hewitt

Does anyone have a glaze that is or looks very much like the glaze on
Ken Ferguson's casserole on page 58 of the current (June) CM. I'm not
promising the rights to my firstborn, but I'd sure be grateful! Looks
to me like a typical matte like Cushing Matte which follows, over a
body with pretty good chunks of Manganese Dioxide in it. This glaze,
probably from Val Cushing, easily dates from that period. Cone 9-10

This glaze
must be applied over a clay body that spots such as rod's bod.
Thicker applications give a lighter ochre color and thinner
applications give the darker rusty brown shades. This glaze breaks
darker over textures. Don't mix up more than you can use over a
period of a month or two because the results seem to alter somewhat
as the glaze ages a bit. The glaze must be fired in a medium to a
heavy reduction to get the results you want. submitted by: Marilyn,

Subject: Re: opalescence

The following is a glaze I tried from the Tony Birk book, The
Complete Potter's Companion, revised edition.

Fired to cone 10, oxidation it produced an interesting opal like
surface.  On the inside of the bowls, where the glaze was thickest,
the color was like mother of pearl, very pretty.   I would suggest
testing first though.

"Clear" Feldspathic
2280F/ 1250C

"This glaze is translucent rather than transparent, with the
characteristic "milk and water" look of a feldspathic glaze.  When
it is thick, it has fine bubbles trapped in the glaze which give
give sparkle, and it combines well with copper oxide (1%) to
make gray green - a celedon without reduction."

The above is straight from the book, I have not tried the copper
oxide addition, yet.

I'm looking for a white crackle glaze, satin or semi-mat surface. I
just tested an old glaze recipe dug up from my files. Guess
what.....no crackles, no crazing. Turned out a smooth satin white on
my porcelain at a high ^6. Couldn't believe it...and to think what I
go through some times to get rid of crazing on a functional glaze!!!
Anyone have a white crackle glaze to share? submitted by: Anne

from the Cooper Glaze Recipes book. I fired this at ^8.  Where
it's thin, the glaze is sort of 'old blue jeans' blue, with tan
streaks. Where it's thickest, it's a deep maroony-mauve. The surface
is a satin matt.

 All the glazes were tested on #900 Miller clay which
is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the test tile was brushed with
a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's wet/dry white slip. Each glaze
was dipped in three thicknesses on a heavily textured tile. All tiles
were fired to a (hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body
reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9 then a quick reox.
before shutdown. Any time potash or Custer spar is called for, I used
G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I substituted 75% of the
amount of Barium with Strontium. All kaolin is EPK. Tracy Wilson Saltbox Pottery 4

FLUID, DO NOT DIP. THIN USE W/ CHUN/YANIGARA/HT/BLACK STAIN June: I
have used this oribe as an accent glaze only. Thick it is green with
a shine, but not a gloss to it. Thin, it is pink (reduced). I found
that flung from a brush through a seive will produce light pink fine
spatter. I use it with a chun that has tin oxide, but no other
colorant and a semi matt white, from a potter by the name of
Yanigara. If you like the way it behaves, Ill send the Yanigara rx as
well. It is a favorite of mine. submitted by: Donald Goldsobel

Here is a dark green shiny glaze that I used when I was doing

more if you want a deeper green Add 10% red iron ox. for a temmoku I
know it does not add up to 100...try it anyway. On stoneware it is a
bit bland for my tastes but on white stoneware or porcelain its a
beauty. It comes from Peter Lane's book Studio Porcelain As Always in

donated recipes. I only tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll
continue testing and reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes
were tested on #900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One
side of the test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia
Bringle's wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three
thicknesses on a heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a
(hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08
and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown.
Any time potash or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball
clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium
with Strontium. All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel

If you are looking for a reliable rutile blue glaze, I have one that
uses titanium (pure form of rutile, of course) and is very nice. It
comes out as a classic blue (thick), rust (thinner) glaze and I have
found it to be very reliable. Gail Dapogny in Ann Arbor james dapogny

Comments:
We've been having a terrible time with one of our production glazes.
We've used it for several years without a problem, but after moving a
year ago we started getting major blisters. Some firings are ok, then
we'll have a terrible load even tho we fire the same schedule each
time. We thot it might be the new water (it's softer, so we wondered
if it might have more sodium), but tried the 'old' water, got the
same blisters, altho not as bad (for a load or 2). We typically fire
(propane) to ^10 tip touching, in about 11-12 hours) start reduction
at ^012 at the coolest spot in the kiln. We take an hour from ^9 to
^10, then usually leave the damper open for an hour to quick cool
before we close it. We tried closing it immediately for a slow cool,
hoping to smooth out the glaze, but still had blisters and had lost
all our great blues. The temp is within 1/2 cone throughout the kiln,
and reduction seems fairly even. The other thing is that it isn't
every pot in that glaze. On one shelf, the pots on one side might be
blistered and the other side fine, and one shelf up or down the
opposite side is affected. It seems worse when the glaze is thin.
Sometimes a re-fire helps smooth them out. Our 2 claybodies are
Plainsman H443 (brown) and H551 (white). Could it be the clay? We
have some blisters in other glazes too, altho not as bad. The only
common ingredient in custer spar. I hope I've given you enough info
to help me. It's been a year of seconds, losing about 20%. submitted

of recalculating for strontium at: feldspar 57.04 neph sy 15.65
whiting 13.52 kaolin 8.74 strontium carb 5.03 I assume he used this
in oxidation. I know he fired over clays that came from Quyle Kilns
in Murphys CA so the stuff was an iron buff stoneware. Emily in

Satin matt. Very similar to Shaner red. Very metallic brown going to
deep red over white slip. Well I finally got around to typing this
thing up...^9-10 Blues Thank you one and all for all the donated
recipes. I only tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll continue
testing and reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were
tested on #900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side
of the test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia
Bringle's wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three
thicknesses on a heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a
(hard)^9 (10 tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08
and 1 hr. glaze reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown.
Any time potash or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball
clay is OM-4 . Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium
with Strontium. All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel
well. Your results will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test
before use. Tracy Wilson Saltbox Pottery 4 Shaw Rd. Woolwich, ME

Comments:
White RETRY My experience with copper red is that what matters most
is to begin reduction at cone 012 fairly heavy and then go into
moderate reduction after cone 05 drops. Continue moderate to light
reduction until cone 10 then a brief oxidation peroid of about 10
minutes. If you over reduce it will be liver brown and under reduced
will be celadon. One solution to a problem (uneven, spotty reduction
and under reduced)we had was to turn down the gas and air. To slow it
down and reduce at the above schedule. We were firing in an Alpine
updraft with blowers and just running the same schedule as the people
who fired before us. (It was a community center). They were firing at
4 pounds pressure (natural gas) with the blowers at 70. Something
like that. But we reduced the gas and the air and the firing was 100%
better. No more spotty reduction or unreduced pots. (I kind of miss
those unwanted interesting results though.) submitted by: John Britt

This is a shino that I have used for years, it works on stoneware or
porcelain, it will sometimes crawl on stoneware, I have never seen it
crawl on porcelain. It must be very thin on porcelain to turn orange,
or try putting a wash of an iron rich glaze (I use temmoku) before
applying the shino. Shinos need a good reduction to get the orange
color, as you probably know. Good luck. David Cuzick

NOTE: originally specified anhydrous Soda Ash Lowell Baker: Here are
three more shino glazes for you to explore. One is probably well
known, Shaner's shino, it is the one we use at Mohawk C's 'ceramics
lab' stoney creek. As quoted this is a high alkali glaze (sodium and
lithium) and unusually high alumina 1.6 moles (29.5% by weight). This
glaze doesn't fit the pattern of C10R glazes but works if one applies
it carefully. (The iron comes from the raw materials and totals 0.01
moles, 0.35%) A thin singlecoat yeilds variegated organge especially
on a embossed surface. If a second coat is applied, one gets a greyed
white, and if the glaze is even thicker it will crawl. From: Tom Buck

Originally specified lithium oxide -almost certainly this should have

Comments:
As per your request for a shino, here is one I developed and am
particularly fond of. I do not know how low it could be fired. I fire
it to ^10-11. One of the most important aspects of shinos is HOW they
are fired. To get good fire color, I reduce from ^010 on until the
end, then I back the burners off to low and oxidize for 1-2 hours
before shutting down. For testing, apply at various thicknesses from
very thin to very thick for a variety of color/texture types.

The plain shino I use is known to me as Jeff Oestreich's Shino,
although many people tell me it is actually a Chris Gustin glaze, but
of course we should know that it or something akin to it is from
someone eons old.... Good luck with these. They are generally pretty
decent glazes. submitted by: Jeremy Nudell Kalin e-mail:

Comments:
I have also used a shino with some cobalt and chrome as a green
shino- it only goes a fatty green in salt, in redux it's a pale
anemic green. Good luck with these. They are generally pretty decent
glazes. I suppose those Celadon cops might try to insist that the
green is no longer a shino, but a green is a green is a green. The
base is still a shino, okay... submitted by: Jeremy Nudell Kalin

Does anyone know of a good substitute for Avery since it is not
longer available or is it? I get a very satisfying orange with this
at cone 10 in a salt fring. Now I've run out and need some
suggestions. kurt wild <kurt.l.wild@uwrf.edu>

Comments:
I've tried a bunch, and not had much luck until recently. I've been
using one for a few firings now that I like pretty well; it responds
in an interesting way to different atmospheres and clay bodies. A
little more inFiring: Some salting is involved in all of the wood
firings I have used this slip in- generally about 1 1/2 - 3 pounds
per chamber. These are not super long firings -in the 14-18 hour
range, so a lot of the surface effect comes from the salt rather than
from a lot of ash. I have also used it in salt/soda and it looked
great-more orange than brown. I haven't used it with a real heavy
load of salt but if you try it I'd like yo know how it looks. Mix
just a little on the thin side and its works on bisque just as well
as on geenware I've been working up some variations using Helmer
kaolin, but haven't hit one I like yet. If you get a response about
the Avery will you pass it along? Thanks- if you try this out let me
know what you think. submitted by: John Anthony e-mail: JTRAX@AOL.com

Comments:
I recently made up a test batch of Jeremy Nudell Kalin's recipe for a
fake Avery woodfire flashing slip. I put it on some test bowls made
from Miller 510, which is a packaged cone 10 white stoneware, the
makeup of which I don't know. The slip was a little thin when I mixed
it , so I used a little epsom salts to thicken to what I am used to
with an Avery slip going on leather hard. Fired to ^10, it flashed
gorgeously, but also cracked and jumped off the pots. Any suggestions
for a better fit? Bentonite? I guess I should find out more about the
clay body before submitting this, and I will do that. In the
meantime, any suggestions would be most welcome.TIA submitted by:

Also add: Grog to taste New to sprayed soda, I'll reply with what I
did. My clay body is an APGreen based stoneware with no added iron
and lightened up with some EPK, It has some pyrophillite grog from
Cedar Heights, and some fine silica sand. Clay body used by Makenzie
Smith at TAMUCC workshop 1995. The firing was done in oxidation. Some
of my students had some darker clays in the kiln and reduction gives
a form of boredom brown to them. As the kiln was cone 9 ish I started
to spray in the 1 gallon of water with 5 pounds of soda ash
(approximate). A nice variety of residual soda effects resulted with
orange peel on some rims and dry surfaces where pots were tightly
stacked. When the hot spot in the kiln showed a little warping of the
pots the kiln was turned off. The firing from dull red heat took
about 16 hours. It could have been done quicker, but there were
numerous orifice adjustments and I like to go slow in a new kiln. I
do my best to have the kiln going slower than 1 cone per hour above
cone 8. I think it produces more lively glaze surfaces. submitted by:

comments: Robin Hopper cites this decorating slip: He says it is
useable from C04 to C12, and if unaltered fires to a "basic white."
(On a buff stoneware fired C10R, it gives a grey-tone white).To this
slip, to get black, he would add 5% (+/-) of his black stain which
has the following ingredients: 20% chromium oxide 20% cobalt (oxide
or carbonate) 20% manganese (di)oxide 20% iron oxide red 8% feldspar
(any) 8% kaolin (any) 4 flint He states this mixture is best after
being ball-milled for a minimum of four hours to eliminate specking.
He says 5% is enough for a clear glaze, more may be needed for an
opaque glaze (or slip as above). If this approach isn't suitable to
your friend, perhaps it will provide a simple guide towards a black
slip. Salut! Tom.Buck submitted by: Tom Buck source for original

----------------------------Original
message---------------------------- You probably got the recipe
already considering how long it takes me to research it, but here is
the one that we use at the school. Note that this recipe is set for
larger batches and all quantities are in grams. Good Luck Sorry I
forgot the particulars. And since I have neglected ( because I was
movingwhile working full time) to keep up with the group, I am now
looking at 802 messages, many of which I will not read and will have
to pick up the new threads as they come along. It is also why this
response is not more timely. Sloan's Black is a cone 10 glaze; as I
am sure that Vince or someone in this group has subsequently pointed
out. At (10) the glaze is a thick rich black with a silvery surface
finish. At (11) it is a very nice glossy black of the same thick
substance. Dave Durnford Box 2145 Missoula, Montana 59806 University

Comments:
GREAT BLUE/RED /DARK BLUE! My experience with copper red is that what
matters most is to begin reduction at cone 012 fairly heavy and then
go into moderate reduction after cone 05 drops. Continue moderate to
light reduction until cone 10 then a brief oxidation peroid of about
10 minutes. If you over reduce it will be liver brown and under
reduced will be celadon. One solution to a problem (uneven, spotty
reduction and under reduced)we had was to turn down the gas and air.
To slow it down and reduce at the above schedule. We were firing in
an Alpine updraft with blowers and just running the same schedule as
the people who fired before us. (It was a community center). They
were firing at 4 pounds pressure (natural gas) with the blowers at
70. Something like that. But we reduced the gas and the air and the
firing was 100% better. No more spotty reduction or unreduced pots.
(I kind of miss those unwanted interesting results though.) submitted

Here is a stoney matte that I used to use a long time ago. It was a
really nice glaze back then and assume that it still is. the color is
quite effected by the thickness of the glaze, the thicker the glaze,
the whiter. Nice with variation of thickness. This is a fairly stiff
glaze. submitted by: Dianna Rose Downs source for original recipe:

Comments:
Ferro Frit 3134 3 (He doesn't specify what frit to use so I use
this.) While we are on synthetic Mashiko/Hamada glazes, here is a
synthetic Nuka (white rice hull ash glaze) from Phil Rogers' _Ash
Glazes_. It works nicely over temmoku, at the top of bottles,
creating a waterfall effect where it dances over the black temmoku.
Has no tin in it. It is a silica white, very white by itself. The
bone ash creates bubbles that opacify and add to the brightness of
the white. I only use it either dipped or trailed over temmoku. Too
shiny white otherwise, unless used unevenly over a dark body.

 Very reliable

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 24 years

*Where did this recipe come from?
 Claude Laliberté, Québec City

*What do you like most about this glaze?
 Beautiful color and slightly textured surface

 100% reliable. It has no surface defects

 Very well

 Medium application thickness.

*How does this glaze interact with other glazes?
 Well

*What is your kiln type and size?
 Downdraft propane,60 cubic feet

This has been fired in reduction but I suspect it will work in
oxidation. If anybody tries it in oxidation, please let me know the
results. I love this stuff as an accent. It has a long firing range,
I suspect ^9 - ^11. It's very forgiving, very stiff and should go on
just fine as a light cream consistency dipped. Peace and long

this is a very nice cone ten, easy to make this glaze was found
written on the side of plastic pail i bought at an auction 31 years
ago. as with all mirror blacks the thickness of the glaze, the
quality of the reduction, and the care in cooling the kiln will play
a dramatic influence on the final product. breaking to rust is the
result of thin areas. and if you wish to use this as iron red just
apply a thin coat. as most veteran potters will verify.....make 2,000
pots, apply mirror black glaze, and fire the kiln 73 times...you will
learn to use it... mel jacobson, minnesota

Comments:
 Closest thing to redux temmoku I can find. Works well with Penland
Purple overlapped as a "chun".
 Must be fired to hard ^10 for colour to develop - at 9 it is boring
brown.

 Use 1/4 to 1/2% macaloid as as suspender

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 Over 7 years

*Where is it used?
 My studio

*Where did this recipe come from?
 CM compilation of glazes.  Sorry, date unknown, but older than 10
years.

*What do you like most about this glaze?
 Consistency - apply thickly and it stays put.  Good for tableware.

*Is this glaze reliable?
 ABSOLUTELY

*Does this glaze tend to craze/crawl/pinhole/etc.?
 Rub any pinholes on dry glaze to avoid pinholing in final product.
Wear gloves as this glaze will stain your hands - and your clothing.

*How do different firing temperatures/atmospheres affect the glaze?
 Will fire to ^9 (gets glossy) but the colour is awful! Firing to ^10
at 4 o'clock for best results.

*How does the glaze behave on different clay bodies?
 Have used on 3 different clay bodies with identical results.

*What consistency should the glaze be for pouring/dipping?
 Medium thick

*How thickly should the glaze be applied to the pot?
 Medium thick - if applied thinly, you can get some red flashes - but
unless clay is extremely smooth (non-stoneware) the end product is
non-functional.

*How does this glaze interact with other glazes?
 Overlapping with Penland opal gives a wonderful "chun" effect in ox.

*What is your kiln type and size?
 PSH CRT 180 - 6.5 cubic ft.

*How do you typically fire?
 I "candle" overnight. 20-24 hours depending on electricity demands.

*Do you experience problems with the raw glaze?
 Rapid settling!!  I use .25 - .5% macaloid as a suspender - or it
becomes a cement lump.  Also, takes a long time to dry.  Be patient!

*What is your water pH?
 I use R/O water

Comments:
This is a fluid but not necessarily runny glaze. (Any iron saturate
glaze will run if over fired or put on too thick.) I have found it
best to fire it in a mild reduction to neutral. And lately I've been
turning off the kiln at Cone 9 bending. Thickness (or rather proper
thickness) is always important for the desired black. Bentonite is
important as this glaze will settle out immediately. Source: Kansas

Satin glaze. Deep purple where thick. Midnight blue where medium.
soft purple with slip. Well I finally got around to typing this thing
up...^9-10 Blues Thank you one and all for all the donated recipes. I
only tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll continue testing
and reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were tested on
#900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the
test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's
wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three thicknesses on a
heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a (hard)^9 (10
tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze
reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown. Any time potash
or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 .
Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium with Strontium.
All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel well. Your results
will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test before use. Tracy

I know we have covered pinholing exhaustively, but I am still having
a problem with 2 glazes. Is there a way to adjust the recipes to
help? I have 2 glazes that are pinholing each on their own, and
together. It seems to happen mostly in the electric kiln, but
occassionally in the gas reduction firings. Have tried smoothing with
a finger before firing, soaking at peak, and going slow midway
through the firing. Any other suggestions? Here are the cone 9

Comments:
Tom Coleman handed out some of his glaze formulas at a FUSION
conference in Ottawa a couple of years ago. Included was one for
TOMATO IRON RED cone 8-10 in reduction. I have not tried it, but he
had examples of it there. A bright orange red, gloss. Ask him about
it at NCECA. Liz Willoughby R.R. 1 Grafton. Ontario Canada. K0K 2G0

Comments:
Add C.M.C. 1 tsp I have had trouble with pinholing over underglaze
and slip,too. I fire to ^8 ox. on Sheffield's T3 body. When I use
Amaco underglaze or a slip made from the clay body, bisqued to ^06
and then put Translucent Gray-White semi-matte over it, pinholing
occurs only over the underglaze or slip. I suspect the problem lies
with the gases escaping from the slip and underglaze but I don't know
how to deal with this. I have a Paragon kiln with a computer control
hoobee but it doesn't have a soak option (if I had only known!).

Comments:
 This is an excellent transparent/clear glaze that is very hard and
durable. I have used it over colored slip, with sgraffito into the
slip and with oxides and stains brushed over it and the decorations
don't move. This glaze can be brought to the VERY edge of the foot
without moving. I use it inside of all my functional work and when
decorating with colored slips I use it over the whole surface of the
pot.
 It is an excellent glaze that will always perform well especially
when you are in a hurry to get things fired. No surprises.
 Food-safe.

*Variations:
 Can add 1/4 % Copper Carbonate for Light Green in Oxidation ^9-10
firing.

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 Almost 20 years

*Where is it used?
 In my studio

*Where did this recipe come from?
 I got this recipe from Kieth Campbell from Ontario, Canada but
believe that it is an Alfred Univ. glaze originally

*What do you like most about this glaze?
 There are no surprises and I can count on it every time. Its food
safe.

*Is this glaze reliable?
 Very

*Does this glaze tend to craze/crawl/pinhole/etc.?
 Crazes if applied TOO THICK.

*How do different firing temperatures/atmospheres affect the glaze?
 Electric/Oxidation or Gas fired/Reduction or neutral fire are all
equally as good.

*How does the glaze behave on different clay bodies?
 On porcelain and white stoneware it is clear white. On buff and or
red bodies it goes somewhat grey because of the iron in the clays.
Very pleasent on all clays. I have tested and used on all the above
clays.

*What consistency should the glaze be for pouring/dipping?
 The consistancy of my glazes is like homo milk. The normal
consistancy. I dip to the count of 5 - 10.

*How thickly should the glaze be applied to the pot?
 Normal.
 I spray this glaze as well to 1/16th of an inch or better.

*How does this glaze interact with other glazes?
 I like it the way it is for my work.  Test your glazes and see what
happens. I have sprayed other glazes on rims etc. and all worked fine.

*What is your kiln type and size?
 30 cu.ft. downdraft gas kiln.

*How do you typically fire?
 Heating...pilots (4) on over night or at least a 9 hour period.
Burners (4) on low over night or till cone 07 is down. Turn up the
burners to 1/2 way mid. reduce kiln for 30 to 45 mins. depending on
the weather.  Cut the reduction (open dampers to almost open and a
light reduction till cone 10 falls. Clear kiln, shut off and seal.
 Slow 36 hour cool before cracking the door and work comes out in
about 48 hours.

*Do you experience problems with the raw glaze?
 NO....this glaze can be stirred easily even after 8 weeks of non use
and stays stirred for long periods of time while glazing. I make a
large green garbage pail of my well used glazes and they last me for
a yr. or more.  No smells etc.

*What is your water pH?
 City water.

*Any other comments?
 Try this glaze...it will be a main stay in your studio. ;>}}}

from Alfred/ Jim Chalkley Couldn't detect any light. blue but I
remember it used to be beautiful on carved porcelain. (Jim, are you
out there?) Well I finally got around to typing this thing up...^9-10
Blues Thank you one and all for all the donated recipes. I only
tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll continue testing and
reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were tested on #900
Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the test
tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's wet/dry
white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three thicknesses on a heavily
textured tile. All tiles were fired to a (hard)^9 (10
tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze
reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown. Any time potash
or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 .
Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium with Strontium.
All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel well. Your results
will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test before use. tracy

from Clayart Database Dark brown on stoneware. Slate blue over white
slip. Satin Matt Well I finally got around to typing this thing
up...^9-10 Blues Thank you one and all for all the donated recipes. I
only tested 31 out of almost 100 I received. I'll continue testing
and reporting as the winter DRAGS on. All the glazes were tested on
#900 Miller clay which is a toasty ^10 stoneware. One side of the
test tile was brushed with a thick coating of Cynthia Bringle's
wet/dry white slip. Each glaze was dipped in three thicknesses on a
heavily textured tile. All tiles were fired to a (hard)^9 (10
tipping)reduction firing. 1 hr. Body reduction at ^08 and 1 hr. glaze
reduction at ^9 then a quick reox. before shutdown. Any time potash
or Custer spar is called for, I used G-200. All ball clay is OM-4 .
Many glazes I substituted 75% of the amount of Barium with Strontium.
All kaolin is EPK. Remember... glazes don't travel well. Your results
will probably be TOTALLY different. Please test before use. Tracy

Very interesting "antique" green with speckles darker on dark
burning clays and lighter on light burning clays (Vérité de Monsieur
de la Palice). Hum!

*How long have you been using this glaze?
 3years

*Where is it used?
 Studio

*Where did this recipe come from?
 From our own experimentation using the base recipe of our glaze
named Mag as a starting point.

*What do you like most about this glaze?
 The  color is very appealing and conservative-like. The surface is
semi-gloss with a few speckles and nice to the touch; a very smooth
surface.

*Is this glaze reliable?
 Yes

Comments:
kiln type: electric Cone 9 and 6, clay: Plainsman M460 and H430,
electric fire, applied to bisque. ALberta slip: At cone 9 Alberta by
itself it makes a rich chocolate brown. It's too refractory to work
at cone 6 by itself, I was told, so I didn't test it.I added 30%
Gerstley borate which was the wrong thing to do, as Alberta is very
glassy to begin with, but I had intended to test at cone 6 as well so
I tested for both 6 and 9. I didn't really like the result at cone 6
with the gerstley, as it was a frosty transparent olive green (at
cone 9 it was a RUNNY transparent olive green. Adding Manganese or
cobalt to the Alberta slip would probably give a really nice black.
What I left out in making this one was Gerstley 10 (Rob uses
Colemanite), but what I ended up with was a stony black with very
tiny brown specks. Tends to crawl if too thick. Rob's recipe was
great too, and that one SHOULD be thick, he says. His recipe also
works on greenware, he said, but I haven't tried it yet. submitted

From ClayArt from Michael Cardew's "Pioneer Pottery". This is not a glaze. It is a
pigment for painting over a glaze. It would be dry and unmelted if used as a
glaze. I use it at cone 10, but I imagine it would be good to use at cone 6, and
probably even a few cones lower. The glaze it is painted over, of course,
determines how it turns out to a great degree. David Hendley david@farmpots.com

Comments:
I've tried other opacifiers, all seem to be the same chemically but
I've always liked what Ultrox did on this glaze. (There's that
ingredient again, I haven't tried the .75 Strontium Carb actor but
don't think it would make much difference, if you try it I'd like to
know the results) The following glaze meets all your specs except the
one about crazing. It's a good glaze that I formulated in my Ceramics
I class at University of Central Oklahoma way back there. It is very
dependable, doesn't run, you can use a brush over it or under it
(with a bit of understandable muting), colors stay in place, it's
glossy, I use it in reduction but in oxidation it loses a bit of
character due to the really white look, You can use it as a base for
wax resist with glazes or oxides over. It's the only glaze I've used
continually for the past 30 years and on many different bodies. I
like it and like what it does. If you try it I hope that you like it
too! Enjoy>>>>>>>>>>> PS...Take Rhodes 32, color it with 1% cobalt
oxide and 4% red iron, apply it over this glaze and get a really neat
semi-mat blue. The white sort of bubbles through the blue and it's
pretty. I guess by now you maybe think I like it....OK I DO these are

From Pete Pinnell, Clay Times Mar/Apr 2005 p. 21. The phosphorus contributes a
number of qualifies to the glaze. It is a glass-former (like the silica), but the
phosphorus and silica don't like to mix together (sort of like oil and water).
This means that in the firing, the phosphorus tends to separate out and form a
cloudy, slightly opalescent milkiness that I find very interesting. It also has a
strong tendency to re-oxidize colorants in a glaze, which can result in unusual,
vivid colors that have the richness of reduction firing, combined with the
intensity of oxidation colors. A side effect of the phosphorus is that the glaze
now resists going matte. It will if pushed—that is, if the cooling is slow enough,
or if the piece is refired in a bisque kiln to allow enough time for the matting
crystals to grow. Otherwise, it is a glossy glaze. The next step (after coming up
with the base glaze) was to try out all the common glaze colorants and see what
they did in this glaze. The results are fascinating, and many are beautiful. I'm
currently in the process of developing more complex colors involving multiple
oxides, and I'll pass those along in a future column.

If you've ever mixed a tomato red glaze, you'll notice that it always includes a
source of magnesium (such as talc or dolomite) and either natural or synthetic
bone ash (a source of phosphorus). Together with iron and the other components,
these create iron crystals, and push them into an oxidized state. As I suspected
it would, Pete's CIA produces a bright tomato red with 7 or 8% red iron oxide. As
the amount of iron increases to 10 or 11%, the glaze becomes quite crystalline,
but just a bit more brown. The red can be made brighter by refiring it (after the
glaze firing) in a bisque firing, or in any low-fire oxidation firing.2 Manganese
dioxide makes a beautiful yellow (really!) in small percentages, becoming a creamy
red-amber at higher percentages. Copper carbonate, which normally wants to turn a
pink or red color in reduction, instead produces light blue-green to emerald
green. It works from 1 to 9%. Titanium dioxide or ruffle produce very nice
breaking and mottling, working best at 4 and 5%. The effect shows up best on
stoneware, but also works well on porcelain with the addition of a small amount of
another oxide (iron or copper, for instance) in addition to the titania. Tin oxide
produces white at smaller percent-ages, which begins to break rust on edges (even
on porcelain) as it nears 10%, with very pronounced cream and orange colors pro-
duced on stoneware at 10% and 12%. Like the iron colors I mentioned above, it will
become more orange when refired in a bisque or other low-fire oxidation firing.
Frankly, I thought the results from cobalt and chrome were very boring, but that
might be my taste in colors. Cobalt produced pasty, pastel blues. Chrome was nice
in very tiny amounts—0.3% made a nice, very light blue-green, but larger amounts
produced dull greenish browns. Please keep in mind that this is a new glaze, and I
don't have extensive experience with it. I've used it (in several color
variations) in a half dozen or so firings, and it is very promising, but I have
yet to work out all the bugs of application and firing.

Try Temple white, the work horse of all glazes. It doesn't mark at all.
It fires semi matt to semi gloss, cone 10 soft to down Marking is
something customers shouldn't have to deal with, especially at
stoneware temps. And this glaze DOESN'T craze on my clay body:t-3
from Sheffield. I have pie plates I've used for over 10 years without
one craze. Good luck!

a nice, fat , matte very-white. Due to the magnesium the talc, this

For turquoise add: 1% cobalt carbonate & 1% Chromium Oxide Yields a
nice matt turquoise. We typically fire our cone 10's in reduction
because we don't have an electric kiln that fires that high. Still,
these recipies ought to work in oxidation - at least worth a try: Liz

Originally KINGMAN feldspar 8000 GMS = 17.78 LBS WHITE SEMI MATT GOOD
FOR ON GLAZE DECO TOTALLY OPAQUE, June: I got this Rx from CM some
years ago. It was touted to be a good glaxe to paint on. I found it
to be a perfect buttery matt stable glaze to cone 10+. That oribe
over it is dynamite. Thin it is pink!!, thicker it is green. I shoot
it off a brush through a screen for a fine speckle and the remove the
screen ( read strainer ) and throw it on\at the pot with a brush. It
is effective for a casual design and fun. I found it best on a white
body and that westwood granite is terrific. Have a ball. If SMr.
Yanigara is lurking out ther, take a bow. Donald Goldosbel in the

from George Washington University I went to make up the following
glaze and realized I didn't have one of the ingredients, nor could I
find a reference for it in several resources I own. Is there an
appropriate substitution for the plastic vitrox? Is this a suspending
agent? I would appreciate any help some of you glaze gurus could
give. Thanks. Barbara barbara lewis <blewis@crosslink.net> WellSpring

Comments:
I have recalculated this glaze without the plastic vitrox - I used
G200 spar but you can use Custer and It would not make much
difference. This glazes is short of silica for a cone 10 glaze - by a
fair bit and it will probably craze on most bodies - It should not be
used with toxic materials because they will leach out when in contact
with certain foods - it may also discolour under certain conditions.
