Dear wiz kids,
A friend has to replace some tiles that were glazed with MT3, a cone 10
glaze that had been used at Greenich House Pottery for many years,, but has
been discontinued. GHP is unable to supply the recipe. It has barium in it,
and is a dark marine matt blue.
Your help, as always, will be deeply appreciated. Thanks, Fran Schwartz

Fran...

I am not sure if this will help but... I have the MT3 with copper glaze
formula from Greenwich House Pottery. It is not the blue, but I can send
you the basic formula (minus the copper) tomorrow if you are interested.
Let me know.

Betty,
Thanks, I'll take ANY MT3 Greenwich House Cone 10 that you have in order
to pass it on.
And if anyone missed my query..am looking for a blue, barium glaze that
was used at Greenwich House Pottery. A friend needs to replace some tiles.
Thanks again, Fran
