crater/lava effects--literally to glaze a volcano?

in advance! (please send replies to e-mail as

Hi There!
Here is a cone 6 crater glaze I've used:
Cryolite--33%
Zircopax--67%
Add Bentonite--2%
This is from Richard Behrens' Glaze Projects, a Ceramics Monthly publication.
A caveat, when handling wares glazed with crater glazes:
The cratered surface is extremely sharp. Handle the ware with gloves! Don't
apply this glaze to functional (dishes, bowls, or mugs) wares.
