In the article, "The Aquaria of Anne Hirondelle," in the current issue
(#31) of CERAMICS:ART and PERCEPTION, her pieces are described, by
author Gretchen Adkins, as being "dipped in a soda ash glaze [achieving]
a metallic look with an occasional freckle of crust on their skin."
I was really taken by the appearance of this glaze have begun hitting
the books on it. I'd be interested in learning from the direct
experiences any of you have had with such glazes and glazing.

Mark,
Recently I've had some limited experience with the following Malcolm Davis
glaze:
Red art Clay 5.7 percent
soda ash 16.3
om4 ball clay 13
epk 17
Kona F-4 9.3
Nepheline Syenite 38.6
In heavy reduction, and on an iron bearing body, I got a few very metallic,
copper looking, pots. No crusting though.
