Just wondering: what is your aversion to stains? They are quite stable and
reliable.

I was trying to come up with something from what I had on hand and I have no
stains. This is for a school and orders only go in every semester, plus I
have to talk the administrator into making a purchase outside the norm.
There is also the issue of cost.

I have taken a look at the Mason Stains and that is probably the way to go
for a studio environment. The firing is a cone 6 oxidation which eliminates
almost everything I have seen so far. We will just have to wait for a bit I
guess.

There is a nice yellowish glaze in the Mastering cone 6 glazes. we
had it mixed at our co-op. It may have been called "bone" and maybe
someone put too much rutile in it. It seemed golden to me.
