Erid - in answer to your request you were sent a recipe for Charlie D
Manganese glase. this recipe is simply a version of Cushing's
Black Satin Matt but without three of the four colorants. The
original colorants are Chrome oxide 1% Red iron oxide 3%
Cobalt OXIDE 3% Manganese dioxide 2%
With these four colorants, it's a knock out black glaze - really thin edges
show a bit blue. To the touch, it's the most sensuous satin matt going.
Truly a "sure fire" glaze. Karen Gringhuis

Hi Karen. Could you send the whole recipe including cone # for that
black satin glaze you wrote about. I missed the one you referred to.
Thanks!
