Tamara from Chile asked for some shino glazes - These are some that were
posted on CLAYART some time back plus a couple of extras.
But Tamara, you should find the Jim Robinson article "Revival Fires:
Another Face for Shino" in The Studio Potter magazine vol 21 no 1 Dec 92.
It is very comprehensive on the different styles of "shino-type" glazes.
Jack Troy's excellent book on woodfiring also has some recipes
I normally respond to these sorts of posts directly - but decided that
others might be interested in chasing up the Robinson article. Cheers

Hi all.
One of the best references around on this subject is the articel done in
Studio Potter magazine on shino glazes. It is by Jim Robinson and is
titled =22Revival Fires=22. It starts with an analysis of a glaze chip from=
a
Japanese shino pot in the Freer, and then divulges off into the various
types of more =22American=22 shinos. It is the December 1992 issue, Volume=
21
No. 1. That overall SP issues focus is Japan and America.
I think it is still available as a back issue (????) for =246.00. Call
Julie Williams at 603-774-3582.
Best,

Mix your soda ash with some hot water in a blender or some thing that will
stir the dickens out of it. It can then be added to the liquit glaze and be
careful when you stir it, it'll foam on ya.
Hope this helps

I am testing shino glazes. All of them use soda ash as an ingredient. When I
add water
to the dry ingredients the soda ash crystalized or "clumped" up. Does anyone
know how to
prevent this from happening, or the correct
way to mix these glazes. I would appreciate
help with this problem. Thank you. Viki G.

Try mixing the soda ash in HOT water so it dissolves, then pour it into the
glaze bucket

Dear Vicki; When I have to use this material, I dissolve the required soda
ash in HOT water and add that to the dry glaze ingredients. However, in my
current Shino-revival recipes there is no soda ash, as i like the results
without it. There's a world beyond soda ash in Shino-revival!
Hope this helps, Hank(no soda ash shinos)Murrow

Hi, Viki.
Always add the dry ingredients to the water. It works much better that way.
And don't forget your mask. I really do always use mine--none of that stuff
is good in your lungs.

When I add water to the dry ingredients the soda ash crystalized or
"clumped" up. Does anyone know how to prevent this from happening, or the=
correct way to mix these glazes. =
Viki,
My shino glazes are high soda with no lithium....closer to Japanese
ones......... so mine all have lots of soda ash.
Take some boiling hot water and disolve the soda ash that you have weighe=
d
out into THAT pure water. You'll have to experiment as to the amount
necessary to do the job for the size batch you are mixing .......so you
don't have too much water . Stir frequently until fully disolved (no
white powder in the bottom of the container). Don't splash this
concentrated solution into your eyes (!) or get it onto your skin for too=
long.
Mix the rest of the ingredients as usual. Start to add water to them unt=
il
quite thick ....still lumpy...and then add the soda ash / water solution =
to
the partially mixed batch (watch eyes from splashing). Stir it up......a=
nd
add any additional water to the batch to get the specific gravity or
viscosity to the point you desire.
Good luck.
Best,
...........................john

At NCECA I saw a fairly good Shino LOOKING cone 5-6 oxidation, electric
glaze (no carbon trapping, but has many of the color and surface
qualities). I took a brochure, but it apparently didn't make it home
with me. Perhaps someone else ?Who was there might have the
information.

I was at the American Craft Council show today and was speaking to an
artist
who does wood fire shino glazing. She said she had heard about a cone
10
shino for electric firing. I was wondering if anyone knows about it and
if
they would be willing to share the information.
Thanks,
