Does any one have a medium blue ( kind of denium color ) for cone 10 =
reduction that you would recommend or share???

I'm looking for one that is a semi matt, sort of a buttery feeling =
glaze.

Thanks!!!

Hi Gene,
Here's one that I like a lot. Cone 10 redux.
It doesn't run at all.

You can see how it looks on my porcelain mugs by going to
http://www.saultman.com - click on the mugs link.
Good luck.

dan,

do you mind sharing what that turquoise glaze is that you have in the =20=

"mug shots" section? also is the june perry blue that you posted the =20=

same glaze as the cobalt blue in that same section of your website?

that little tip on how to dip lids without air getting trapped inside =20=

was very nice.

thanks,

jon

I have seen this glaze. Try to google "Woo's Blue" or Woo Blue
H A N S E N

"Picture in your inner eye, your inner sight, four avocado seeds on the
window sill. Three are suspended in a glass of water and have
sprouted. One is still dry and papery and brown. Each of the sprouting
seeds has its own character. One has two long roots, like two rubbery
legs folding around each other in the bottom of the glass. Out of the
top rises a cluster of tiny seedling leaves, and surprisingly, on this
one, these leaves are white -- little tight white albino avocado
seedling leaves, coming out of that big hard seed knob. Another has
one short straight root and one straight shoot bearing green leaves at
the top. The third has neither root nor shoot, but the whole seed has
been split open by a thrust from inside, and the two halves shoved
apart by the germinating seed force -- that little bunch of stuff, big
as the end of your pinkie, shoving those big doors aside like a tiny
Samson. It is a wonderful sight. And now let us look at the fourth
seed, dry and papery and brown, nothing showing on the outside. But
within are a life force and a living plantness which we cannot see
with our ordinary eyes. If we are to behold the wrinkled old seed in
truth, we have to behold it with imagination, with our inner eye. Only
with the inner eye of imagination can we see inner forms of Being and
Becoming. In this lifeless-looking seed there is a germinating center,
totally alive and totally invisible."

Gene
Try:
potash feldspar 28.4
nepheline syenite 8.2
talc 5.1
silica 37.2
limestone 16.2
kaolin or ball clay 0.6
laguna borate 4.3

cobalt carbonate 2
If 2% is a bit strong, reduce it.
I think it sucks by itself, looks great dipped
or sprayed over our ochre slip or temmoku.

ochre slip:
1/3 biscuit body, - garden sieve
1/3 local yellow ochre (witches brew of limonite, siderite, haematite,
magnetite & a pinch of iron sulphide), - garden sieve
1/3 your fave temmoku
1 kilo dry materials/1500 ml water
2.3 litre jar mill, run for 3 hours.

or
potash feldspar 43.2
kaolin or ball clay 1.5
silica 26.5
limestone 8.6
frit 4106 9
dolomite 11.2

tin oxide 2.7
copper carbonate 0.5
This one is washed denim in colour, glossier, try cooler spot in kiln,
try more dolomite, try, try.
As far as brand materials are concerned we don't fuss,
the broad mineral description is usually good enough.
