79. Using Oxides & Stains to Alter Pottery Glazes

In this video I will show you how you can use oxides and stains to alter the look of your glazes and make them more unique.
Most of us use either commercial glazes or glazes mixed from recipes that are publicly available - in books or websites like Glazy.org. Anyone using the same glazes will get more or less the same look.
But with the use of oxides and stains - under and/or over the standard glazes you can create looks that are truly original - make it 100% your own.
It is very simple to use oxides and stains - and a lot of fun. I hope this video will inspire you to play around with all the colors.

I do have Heath Ivory, not A2V white, but it does the same, makes other glazes under it move. I love glazes like that. I intend to mix a batch of A2V and try it.

    Loved your video! I have not watched your videos before, but I will now. My floating blue is from James Chappell’s The Potter’s Complete Book of Clay and Glazes. It is not the same color as yours, but does fire pretty much the same. It does need to go on thicker so the blue floats and it breaks brown. Can’t wait to use the oxide stains over it. I have never done that before.

    Experimenting is always fun especially if one stays open minded with no expectation except to discover the "what ifs". I have used many glazes on multiple clays and it seems as long as I and firing to the same cone, it works well. The glazes look different on each clay body which is fun in itself - heavy red iron clay vs speckled buff vs white stone vs porcelain all cone 6 -- it's like having multiple glazes in one bucket 😉.

    Mikkel, I just discovered you and your terrific videos. thank you. I am binge watching the videos and learning lots. I am a studio potter for 23 years and live in eastern North Carolina. I make my own glazes and use Joe Thompson's Old Forge Floating Blue recipe, but have JOHN BRITT's recipe as well. Which of the many recipes of floating blue do you use? I have never added so many layers of different stains over or under a glaze, and certainly never tried zinc oxide as a colorant over/under a glaze.... I need to test that. I appreciate your knowledge and want to try your methods. If I get the results you get I will be thrilled. I fire to cone 6 (john Britts schedule E1) and use a white stoneware clay and a red stoneware. what is your firing schedule and what kind of clay are you using? I hope this isn't too many questions.... but your video has made me want to try a new things. Happy New Year! and again thanks!

    Thanks a lot :-) The Floating Blue I use is closest to OldForge's. I prefer the manganese in this rather than RIO. I only do cone 6 glaze fires in my own studio. I do not follow John Britts schedules but I guess it's closest to the E1. I primarily work in stoneware in my own studio mostly using various clays from G&S in Germany. Right now it's their 551 - a clay with a lot of iron and 40% very fine grog that I use the most.

    Can you put a stain or oxide and then dip into glaze? Or would that contaminate your glaze?

    There is a risk. If the glaze already contain the same oxides I may do it but not if its for example a white or light colored. Its safer to spray :-)

    As mentioned in the video it's the oxide I have the least experience with but it appear to create some degree of blended white-ish spots

    First of all - it is important to remember that food safety is not a global specification. Depending on where you live laws may require different things. In Denmark, where I live, you can have your pottery tested for food safety - if it lives up to the requirements in the law, but it is VERY expensive and have to be done for every single design/glaze combo/fire schedule. I don't know of any ceramic artists that do this (and it is in fact only required for large productions). It is only large scale pottery factories that do. Having said that, the method of mixing oxides and stains under and over glazes makes them melt together. And as it is many of the same colorants used in the glazes I feel confident that it is no more or less food safe than if I only used the glaze.
