houston, we have a boeufing

This is a glaze that I've been working on for some time.

It is not ready for prime time yet, it still requires
excessive thickness to develop color properly, and
tends to run when it gets there, and only fits one
of my clays, but I'm close on it. Cone 6, oxidation,
a simple ramp with a delayed cool; it also works
with a long hold. The colorants are copper and tin,
and without the reducing agent, it's a slightly
blueish green (nice over porcelain).
