I have this wonderful satin matte glaze called Old Blue, but I don't have
the recipe and sure wish I did! That glaze has a very interesting
history. The dry mixed bag of glaze came to me from a a friend, who got
it from a friend whose mom was a potter. The mom passed away and the
glaze recipe reamins a mystery. The glazes were pre-mixed by Tucker's
Pottery Supply (Canada) back in June 1982 (that's what it said on the
bag). I really love this Old Blue, so I called Frank at Tucker's to find
out about the recipe, but they didn't have it on file. Anyone out there
familiar with this wonderful grey blue satin matte glaze? If so, would
you be willing to shasre the recipe? I would appreciate any help at all.
BTW, it is a cone 9 glaze.

Many thanks,
