Hi,
I get the impression here that you think this is one glaze doing that
spotting, but my impression from looking at the pieces is that there is
another glaze dabbed on under (or over) the tenmoku to make the
'partridge spotting'. If I wanted to duplicate this look, I'd start with
a standard tenmoku recipe, and experiment with other materials over or
under it.
This mail comes with the standard 'then again I could be dead wrong' caveat.
