  2. Beautiful glaze!
    I have seen celadons in pictures similar to this. I would pay good money for the recipe to this glaze. Really stunning!

  3. Very interesting crackle effect John! Have you given any thought to adding colorants yet?

  4. Rob,

    I am working on that as we speak. It is hard because they change the COE or make it opaque and you can't the crackle.

    Hey, did you ever get my note about a clay that would be prefect for you? Earthen Red from Highwater fired to cone 6.

  6. Jaja,

  7. Oh, I haven't noticed that you're at cone 6 I've just remembered I've seen similiar one over the net on Cory's ware so I tried to google it.
    Have you already tried your snowflake glaze with different clay bodies?
    Colorants in glaze, apart from COE change, might be too many visual effects together.
    Maybe color engobe strikes under the glaze would be interesting to test and more decent in look.
    Looking forward to see more tests. Jaja
