This is glaze #119 from Emmanuel Cooper's " the Potters Book of Glaze Recipes"
Broken Glaze Base, ^5
50 Nepheline Syenite
20 Whiting
26 Standard Borax Frit (Ferro 3134)
4 Bentonite
with 1% copper, as suggested, it has a pale green , slightly translucent waxy
look, similar to celadon, and breaks very pretty over textured surfaces. By
playing with stains, you may get a more celadon color thatn the copper alone
gives. I found that even with the Bentonite, this glaze can settle, but does
so a little less with a dose of vinegar. This glaze also looks nice with
other stains, especially if you're doing any carving or raised decoration.
