Ceramic Monthly, Issue June/July/August 1990 beginning on page 33
features fantastic platters by Robert Sperry of Seattle, Washington.
I've been playing with some crawl glazes but never with slip over a
matte glaze.

If it's not too inappropriate to ask, does anyone have recipes for
black matte and slip that would get me started in that direction?

The article explains that be bisques ^06, fires the glaze to ^7, and
refires the slip to ^5.

Thank you, Sydney
