I was pretty pleased with the results of my latest firing (for a change...)
Tested 3 glazes, and while not a one turned out as I expected, I got
some fun results nonetheless.

All my ware survived, and I'm really happy with the lot.
Still, as always, I'd welcome any input on the glaze results...

Looked at your test of the temmoku, recipe has 10% iron, so it should be
black/brown no matter oxidation/reduction. Did you forget to add the iron?
Does your test batch look iron red?
