Here's a ^6 ox. metallic gold/brass matt glaze that appeared in Ceramics
Monthly a few years ago (1994, I think). Turns charcoal grey if applied
thickly. Nasty stuff to clean up, too: wear rubber gloves!
Ball Clay 4.0
Redart 49.0
Flint 4.0
Manganese Dioxide 36.5
Black Copper Oxide 4.0
Cobalt 2.5
____________
total 100.0
Good Luck! Don Goodrich in Zion, Illinois where Autumn is getting
serious

Hi,
I got this glaze in a round about way from Baltimore Clayworks in turn they
got from a book somewhere:
^6 oxidation
Ogden Gold:
Manganese 60
Copper Oxide 10
Red clay 20
China Clay 10
I have tested it and it is a bronzish gold if underfired, I haven't tested
it to temp yet-my kiln still isn't up, anyway good luck

Clayarters:
Ogden Bronze/gold works great. Apply a good coat, not too thin. I fire
with cone 7 in sitter.
Another great metallic surface is:
Sandy Bronze
Ball Clay 20
Manganese Diox 80
Copper Carb 20
Wtch out for Manganese and apply thin, not too thick.
