Subject: Beautiful white glaze & wishful thinking


I wanted to share a gorgeous white glaze pic I found on a tea website. It
looks like cream cheese frosting on chocolate cake. YUM!

http://www.houdeasianart.com/images/large/teajarwhite_LRG.jpg

The product description calls it a qingbai glaze. Does qingbai glaze
(normally clear with a blue to blue-green tinge) go white over darker
bodies?

The artist is Xu Dejia of Taiwan, known for creamy celadon wares. I have one
small teacup by Xu, a jun-looking piece whose texture I wish I could
transmit online so you all could feel how soft it is, like my fingers will
leave impressions in the glaze! It also is uniquely cold to the touch. Odd.

Here's the wishful thinking: any cone 6 ox glazes (commercial or otherwise)
look similar? Question of the year, no? :o]--Jason Fasi puerh.blogspot.com=

Nice creamy white glaze Jason, But YES cone ^6 ox has a glaze that is
similar on darker clay bodies I attached a photo of one of my platters with
the creamy white I use. It's out there keep trying!

Hi Jason,

A typical high alumina glaze or one that has been opacifed with a lot of
zirconium silicate - if you wanted it warmer then some or all opacified
with tin.

That is fired in reduction by the way - you can tell because the clay is
reacting with the glaze where it's thinner.

The closest glaze I know of for cone 6 is the cone 6 majolica white on page
108 in our book.

Your biggest problem will be getting the clay that colour in oxidation.
