Is anyone familiar with Rhodes Matt, a cone 10 reduction glaze? A friend
had used it at school in New York but has lost the formula and wanted me to
ask the group. She said it's a cream glaze with nice rust/brown
spots/streaks. Thanks

Yes, it is in Daniel Rhodes, "Clay and Glazes for the Potter".

I don't know which one (there are numerous ones) your friend is
searching for, but a quick look at the last pages of the book
should clarify it. Sounds like Rhodes 32, but could be other.
