Oh People of the Clay---
I have a question about the Pinnell Strontium Matte Glaze that's in the
glaze database. I was under the impression that this glaze once
appeared in CM and in the article the recipe was given with different
combinations of colorants for variations of colors. The one color I've
already used is called bronze green, but there are I believe 3 or 4 other
colorant combinations.

Is anyone familiar with this glaze, and have the other colorant
combinations?

TIA
Sandy

Sandy,
This appeared in a supplement to CM in Jan. 94. Color info as follows:
white: titanium dioxide 5%
weathered bronze green: titanium 5, copper carb 5.
periwinkle blue: cobalt carb 0.15, copper carb 4.
dark mottled green: copper carb 8.
cream/tan: 6
charcoal: manganese dioxide 2, copper carb 5.

good luck

Hi Don!

I tried those combo's under a white cone 6 glaze with really interesting
results! Didn't work well on top (pinholed).
