cone 10 glazes

Hello All

I have just discovered this site and have already learned a lot from the
wealth of information on this board!

I was wondering if you all would be willing to share your favourite ^10
reduction glazes. I am a member of a guild with studio space and shared
glazes and we need to expand our ^10 colours. We are having a hard time
finding good stable recipes. We do have a varity of blues that work well
and would now like to try some new colours!

Thanks in advance!

I've got to go with Mel here....mix your own glazes. Very simple, don't
have to use an expensive scale....and you know what is in your glazes. If
you don't know and want to adjust them, how are you going to do it. What
are you going to do if one crazes? Or is too runny. You don't have to
get into calculation unless you want to, and as Mel stated, premixed glazes
are considerably more expensive.

Now, if we could just find out what's in premixed clays....oops. Sorry.

Greetings unto the Wise and Venerable Clayart List!

I have agreed to teach an adult continuing ed class in clay at the local
college. The class has not been offered in a number of years. There is
equipment available, but no clay or glaze materials. I have about $100 to
$150 to purchase glazes. I have no experience with commercially prepared
glazes, but I think that is what I will have to use. I will be firing cone
10 reduction. Any suggestions?!

Please reply to me off list at Teresa597@aoldotcom

Thanks!

Ask people to bring wood ash to stretch your glazes.
There are lots of recipes. I agree with Mel. No bottles.
It is not a learning experience with premixed glazes.

Not sure what you can get for $150. Tom Coleman has cone 10 reduction
glazes on the market. Sold in powder form. I know Georgies in Portland
carries them and other ceramics supply houses as well.

I have a friend - Ki Cho - at Echo Ceramics here in Los Angeles, that
sells cone 10 glazes thru his website -
www.echoceramics.com - he has pics on there too. He sells them wet
or dry for pretty reasonable prices.
He has some traditional glazes, shino, temoku, copper red...etc, and
some of his studio glazes, which are beautiful - all cone 10.


To see other shots of his glazes check out my website -
www.lesleyanton.com and go to the glazes/shades page. I have some
other names for some of them because my customers seemed to need more
basic descriptive names. But you'll be able to tell which is which
probably. If you have a question let me know.

don't forget you don't always have to glaze. maybe just using some stains might enable one base glaze to be used.

Aardvark has a white called Watt's White with i've used by itself, or throwing in a touch of various mason stains for some color.

and you might put together an ash glaze pretty quickly.

see ya
