Hi Clayarters!! I have a question for you electric kilners out there: a
friend of mine just recently began using an electric kiln, but she needs a
leadless white recipe. I was wondering if any of you out there would be
kind enough to e-mail me a recipe or two? She and I would deeply
appreciate your help!
Thanks, all!

Since the topic is glazes, I've got a situation....
I'm working on an order for a tile table-top. The customer wants to incorporate
the design and glaze elements of the Arts and Crafts style. The design is
complete.
My research indicates that pottery of this period was probably mid-to-high fired
in reduction in gas kilns. The tile samples I've seen appear to be made from
iron-bearing clay.
I work in oxidation, in an electric kiln, in a pretty wide range (^04 to ^10).
Can anyone recommend a good clay to use for my purpose, along with a source of
recipes (suggestions will do just fine, too) which can mimic the distinctive,
earthy-toned colors (browns, red-browns, cream, yellow-whites, blues, greens) of
that era?
Any and all words of wisdom are, of course, welcome. Please respond to Clayart
or to BLeopard@ricochet.net.
Thanks! and have a great Memorial Day Weekend. We're going to brave the lines
and (hopefully) get in to see Godzilla!
