I have a crystalline glaze recipe that yields yellow & green crystals on a
true violet background, using very small amounts of manganese & iron along
with Titanium as colorants.
Yes- in my world, TiO2 is a colorant ...visit my site to see what I mean.
The glaze I refer to comes out of the initial oxidation firing as a not so
attractive yellow-brown. After re-firing it in a reduction atmosphere, I
get the violet (if they taught chemistry this way, NO ONE would think it was
boring!)
You can view examples of this glaze at the link below.
Under "Lidded & Finial Jars", see the first image displayed.
Under "Decorative Bottles", see the 2nd image.
The 3rd Bottle is a satin-matte crystalline glaze (also violet).

The next link will take you to a page covering my post-fire reduction method
(don't laugh at my kiln... it'll beat yours up).

Dear Jesse;
Titania is a colorant in every potter's world...... whether they
realize it or not.
