This is another rutile blue glaze that is dark blue where thick
and orange where thin.
I haven't used it since the '70's, and stopped using it because
it looks virtually the same as "#51 Rutile Blue", a glaze I sent to
Clayart a few weeks ago (See below).
#51 is cheaper and avoids the hazards of handling barium
carbonate.
Xavier, I hope you get some 'extra credit' from your teacher for
finding the glaze.
