Hi All,

pretend to be a potter. I wanted to post a beautiful red glaze

it is ^6 oxidation,


RUST RED ^6

Gersley Borate 30.18
F4 20.20
Talc 14.18
EPK 4.98

total
also add
Red Iron Oxide 18.10
Bentonite 3.00



It is a glossy red/greyish pale green fused together. It is very nice.

I can't really describe, I am not very used to this color descriptions with word
