Hi Carolyn!
The catalogs that I know have relatively extensive footnotes are from
ART and Ceramics Supply of NY and NJ, but I'm sure others do as well.
Both list max high temp for Mason Stains and notes about whether a
particular stain needs zinc or calcium or if a certain chemical should
be avoided in the glaze or slip. You might need glasses when your done
because the footnotes are in very small type! Most of these notes would
apply to the oxides used to make the stains. DeGussa (or Cedric) makes
the cadmium inclusion pigments. They're really expensive and sturdy.
When I was in school, I accidentally fired a gas oxidation kiln to cone
11 and still had the deGussa orange (but almost everything else faded).
At the time, I was firing to cone 10. I now fire to cone six. Hope
this is of further help...

Mason makes encapsulated Cadmium-Selenium stains that sound like what
you are describing. Look at 6025 and 6026 at Axner for example.

I do not know how safe these stains are for food surfaces. I think you
should investigate that issue carefully.
good luck...

I saw a fire engine red cone 6 ox. glaze the other day and the potter
told me it was a stain but he would not tell me where he got it . Does
anyone out there know where I can buy it?

If you are considering buying the Cerdec encapsulated Cadmium-Selenium
stains, it pays to shop around. Prices vary and since you're unlikely to be
buying hundreds of pounds at prices varying from $39 to $68 a pound
(depending on where you order), postage shouldn't be very high.

we really could use some rain.
