high fire breaking glazes

I am interested in creating a palette of glazes that break a different
color on the edges than the rest of the glaze. I am aware that rutile can
have that affect, but have only seen it with a black that breaks to brown.
I am just beginning this endeavor so any suggestions are welcome.

Hello Wendy- I have used a couple of glazes off of the ClayArt glaze
database that break as you described- Oatmeal (golden tan breaking brown)
and Moonlight- a rutile blue that breaks brown. Both are nice glazes. I
access the database from the Ceramics Web site at
http://apple.sdsu.edu/ceramicsweb.

I have tried several times to call the recipe section of ceramics web up
without success, could you PLEASE send me that Moonlight recipe if it is a
Cone 5-6 recipe.
Thanking you in advance,
