Yes, the glaze you are looking for must be the Fake Ash listed in my "Glaze=
Forward" research.
When first asked about it, I denied that it was mine, because I am not a lo=
ver of
Strontium Carbonate and didn't associate that glaze with that material.
The French translations are also my recipes. Edoard translated them with my=
permission.
We have been using these glazes at EMU for more than 10 years, probably 15.
The only warning I have about Fake Ash is that it needs a good bisque under=
it,
or a light colored body.
