    Honestly, if you can follow a cooking recipe you're overqualified to follow a glazing recipe. Just make sure you don't breathe in the dust while you do it!

    Lots of neph sy in this base! do you use magnesium sulfate to flocculate this base to keep it from hardpanning?

    Have you explored maybe firing the pieces upside down? To change drip directions? There's a guy who fires the same style glaze on butter keepers, and he fires the domed part, bowl side down because there's a handle/lid decoration.

    I haven't. There aren't many forms I make that don't need to be glazed on the inside, which makes it very difficult to fire upside down without affecting the usability.

    I saw the glaze recipe and I’m wondering if the recipe is in % ? So if the Copper Carbonate is 3.00 means if I want to do a batch 10.000 , the cooper Carb is about 300 g ? It is not to much? Thank you for sharing the lovely glazes recipes 🤗

    Hi Joe, these are beautiful glazes! I notice on Glazy that you recommend these for dark clay. Have you tried them on lighter coloured clay and the results weren't satisfactory? I use an off white clay and before investing in the titanium dioxide ($$) to try them, I'm wondering what your results were if you've already tried them on a lighter clay. Thank you!!

    Interesting, over here titanium is one of the cheaper colourants. It's a translucent glaze with a light colour. Over dark clay you get the contrast of the clay showing through but over light clay it's essentially white on white. It makes a nice soft pastel rather than a dramatic pattern. You can see Borealis over light clay on the first bowl here: instagram.com/p/CIrA91Rrwa7/

    @@OldForgeCreations In Canada, it's fairly pricey, though not as expensive as tin or cobalt. I'll see if I can get a few grams from another local potter for testing purposes before making the leap. Thanks so much for sharing this!

    So just the presence of chrome? Wonder what adding some to the salt in a salt kiln would do.

    He doesn't really like it in the studio. There is a dog flap for him to come in, but he generally doesn't. Here are more pictures though - instagram.com/stories/highlights/17999167261177680/
