On some of Ellen Shankins pots they are red on the bottom, yellow in the =
middle and a fake ash around the tops. I think the red is Shaner red and =
I have several fake ash recipes for the top but I can't figure out what =
the yellow is on the middles of the pieces.=20

Do you have any ides what the yellow may be???

Do you think she puts the red on the entire piece and starts spraying at =
the middle with the mystery yellow glaze and lastly sprays the ash =
around the top???

I'll be firing to cone 10 in reduction.

Thanks for any help.

Gene,

Here is Ellen's email address: warshank@swva.net (She displays her email publicly on the 16-hands tour brochure, so she shouldn't mind you emailing her.)
