I am just starting out as a potter and I am trying to build up my glaze
recipe book. I have an order for a purple matte bowl set and I can't find
any recipes, or evem prepared purple matte glazes. I would also love a
pewter, or mettalic slate grey glaze, and any other nice cone 5 or 6 glazes.
Thankyou
