I saw some examples of 'breakthrough glazes' (I think that's what they were
called) when browsing through a copy of Chappel's glaze book.
Are these types of glazes known by another name? I don't believe I've heard
them mentioned since I've been on list. The were two layer glazes, and
albany slip base with another glaze applied on top.
I'd appreciate info or cone 6 recipes (non-Albany slip of course) to test.
Thanks,
Valerie

For people like me wherever they live: in the Negev, Abu Dhabi, Grand
canyon or Western Australia: We order books through the net.
Names like Smashing glazes Breakthrough glazes Astonishing Clay and
glazes, Fabulous clay and glazes: When they are given to books, might
mislead us. They might be astonish: Yet I prefer simple names rather
than buying a book, find the outstanding glazes do not fit my work.
So when you publish a book, please give it a clear name do not mislead
us to a wrong expense!

Valerie,
I was doing some research on the late Maija Grotell, who taught for
many years at Cranbrook. She had a breakthrough glaze that was an
Albany slip/Bristol glaze combination that she referred to as a
"tiger-eye" glaze. If I recall correctly, she fired to about cone 8
in a Glo-bar electric kiln.
