Please, when anyone posts glaze tests, such as these, let us know whether they were done in oxidation or reduction. This is especially important in the vicinity of cone 6, where it could just as easily be gas or electric.
Thanks!
Bob

What a great job John. I know how much work this is and I think it is
super that you have the desire to get a database written and published on
the internet. Thank you and congratulations.
Especially cone 6 oxidation, which has taken over many studios by storm
for many reasons.
I post my cone 6 oxidation, because that is how I usually fire and most
all of the glazes are for oxidation. However, I have also fired some
reduction glazes in oxidation and fired 04 glazes to cone 6 ox. I post
the recipe with the designated cone, say how I fired if it was different,
but I have experienced that when we speak about cone 6, we speak of
oxidation. There is of course other atmospheres to fire Cone 6, soda,
redux. It did not matter how I posted those glaze tests, there was for
someone, something missing. I finally got to the unity.
Well done and thanks for all the hours and work. I am sure many will reap
the benefits of your work.
Best regards,
Alisa in Denmark
out to the studio again to glaze the pixies' red hats.
