yellow glaze

Paul Jadick on sat 27 jun 98

I have a yellow reduction smooth matt glaze known as either "yellow matt"
or "Susan's yellow matt." I can dig it out and send it to you but it is a
soft yellow that tends to turn greenish if too thin. What I think you may
want to find out about are Cerdec (sp?) stains. They have inclusion
pigments that give bright yellow, orange and red, even at high temps in
reduction. They may be too expensive to use as a glaze colorant but
depending on your work, maybe in an underglaze?

I believe A.R.T. catalogue carries them. I have some friends that use them
to "paint" tile murals and they are beautiful. Good luck.

Dear Georgia:

Thanks for your reply to my request for a yellow glaze. Yes, if you
would send the 'yellow matt' or 'susan yellow matt' I would like to try a
test sample. I am looking for a good yellow mainly for decorative details
and will also check out the cerdic stains users have given references to.
I do reduction firing to cone 9 10 in gas kiln. I work with both stoneware
& porcelains. Thank you for your help.

The yellow stain Karen Gringhuis recommends might be a better way to get
yellow glazes considering the barium in this formula. Depends on what you
use it. This is a lovely satin yellow, not canary yellow, but sunshine
(warm) yellow.

I've been working on Geoff's ^10 glazes ... thank you very much, Geoff.
I especially like your yellow because that's where I am right at this
moment. You are such a pal! However, another claybud sent a ^10 - ^11
yellow glaze that "looks goods on brown clay, but shivers on white
stoneware and porcelain." I'm always looking for ^10 glazes that look
right on brown or red clays. This yellow has rutile in it so, recalling
my two disasters with rutile glazes, I'm hesitant about testing it on a
small bowl on my new shelves (itc applied and firing now). Rick, this
glaze is either yours or John's ... not sure if even that much is
correct ... Would whoever posted it, please, let us know if this is a
runny glaze that I shouldn't apply below the shoulder? (Pot's shoulder;
I have glaze from shoulder to toe, myself.) Thank you for being such a
help.

In the Mojave trying to clean up the glaze room floor and the kiln
patio, so Paul Geil will think I'm worthy of his kiln and let me adopt
it when he delivers it Monday. Wonder if he'll preface his visit with a
drop-in from a social worker? I'm a dead duck if he does.

Good a.m. Dai,
Already Thursday, what a tread mill! I hope better late than never still holds.

Buttercup Yellow ^6 - ^9 brightest @ ^6 oxidation

Penny's Base ^6 - 10

Gerstley Borate 21
Wollastonite 8
Neph Sye 30
EPK 10
Silica 31

add praesodymium oxide 4%

this is a bright yellow but with adjustments it might work for you

This base is so versatile, takes colourants well and has the ^6 - 9 range.
It's great for us because we fire class participants' work to ^6, but the
majority of studio work is fired to ^ 8 and ^ 9.

See ya

Peggy,
On our website you can see a glossy yellow (if used on a white claybody)
which is Glossy Base Glaze I from Ron and John's book, with a tiny bit of
variation ( I think I reduced the frit a little due to running) and using
only Rutile as colorant, and some opacifier.
