hi Kurt,
I have found several yellow ^ 6 glazes you might be interested in.
The Pinnell Strontium matt was still very matt with 5% added G. Borate
(maybe needs even more) The glaze must be thickly applied. It breaks to
darker gold and white with 6% mason stain 6485/ titanium yellow.
Gloss clear
Kona Feldspar 17.25
Dolomite .33
G borate 36.76
EPKaolin 20.71
Flint 17.88
(optional zircopax) 8% --for a white glaze. This works well with
many different colorants. Yellow is a sunny /bright that pools in the
crevices with 6% titanium dioxide. I have also added up to 10% more EPK for
a less runny glaze, but I fire closer to ^7 than to ^5.

Dolomite 13.04
Wollastonite 21.74
Neph. Syenite 43.48

add 5% zircopax and 8% mason st. 6485 for a light, delicate yellow.
I use a fairly dark clay body so your results may be quite different. good
luck with the yellows.

There are no recipes but you can gaze at some stunning pots at =
www.harlanhouse.com/ These pieces are porcelain. There are some =
wonderful "boats" to view. Harlan House shows some very different glaze =
treatments on this web site.
Years ago I saw one of his glorius huge porcelain platters glazed with a =
yellow that made you feel that you could wrap it around your shoulders =
for warmth on a cold morning. Stunning. MarjB

Paul Herman (Great Basin Pottery) has a wonderful yellow that I've been
drooling over. Of course, now that I have some money to spare, he tells me
there might not be any left (sigh). Guess I'll have to wait til after this
next woodfire.
