Best over Iron bearing clay body. Thick application is white-colored, thinnest application is close to the base. Wealthiest brown areas convey more iron spray. Mesa College. James Jacobs

LEACH YELLOW SETO - CONE 6 OXIDATION

ochre 25
custer Feldspar 25
Keep glaze thin or else you will be scraping shelves. Becomes transparent yellow-colored brown and incredibly fluid when heavily applied. The mid way thin/thick of application is mottled just like a salt fired piece and it is satin matte. However I got great reds, yellows, browns, blacks on pieces where it's thinner. To create small rivers of ash I result in the same glaze substituting Red Art for that Ochre and trail it up with a slip trail bulb. Caution: use rubber mitts with filthy ash glazes or face the potential of contact eczema.

This glaze has existed the curvature a couple of million occasions, should have been
published here on clayart many occasions. Its a glossy tan background with lots
of blue
floating. This is an absolutely reliable glaze, does not run, pinhole etc. you
can't fail by using it.

Since publication from the book we've ongoing to tweak our firing/cooling cycle to obtain the results we personally like. Our current cycle (which is constantly evolve) is:
Hello!
Just writing everyone that within South america, Lana Wilson's red thrived within my
eletric kiln.I applied it thick and used John Hesselberth's firing profile
(world wide web.frongpondpottery.com) but cooling rate of -125 each hour from 2190oF
lower to 1500oF, then allow it to awesome naturally. I acquired a wonderfull glossy wine
red.
I'll try to load pictures when I'm able to.
Thanks again for glaze gurus everywhere. I'm excited to check other
glazes.

I refer to it as Post's 244
It's a cone 6 glaze fired having a slow awesome.
It feels great on the dark body and also the light body I've attempted it
on, although the dark is more potent visually.

Tenmoku may be the Japanese word for a kind of tea bowl first created in China throughout the Song Empire (960-1279). Additionally, it describes a mountain between China's Zhejiang and Anhui Provinces (Mt. Tienmu in Chinese, Mt. Tenmoku in Japanese).
