Just wondering if anyone knows the recipe to this glaze. I swear I saw
it in one of the magazines. I know its probably been asked before but
I don't know how to get to the archives.
TIA!

Hi Michelle;
This is a recipe for Rick's Turquoise raku glaze by Rick Berman.
Hope this is what you are looking for.
Gerstley 1488 grams
Neph. Synite 750
Spodumene 765
Lithium Carb. 780
Superpax 723
Copper Carb. 98

Epsom salt 23 (add to water and then to dry batch)

You may have seen it in CM in the Mid-South Ceramics ad. I think they
have added it to their line of glazes.

Hope that helps.
