Here's that glaze as posted on Clayart--good luck. Bonita in San Francisco
< bronze/green (this is one beautiful glaze) must fire to cone 6, oxidation
lithium carb 1
strontium carb 20
neph sye 60
ball clay 10
flint 9
plus
titanium dioxide 5
copper carb 5
The bubbles were eliminated when I brushed the glaze on the pot, so now I
always brush this glaze. This works on ^6 red and white sculpture clay
(grogged). BTW, I found the original recipe a little too matt so I upped the
lith carb to 1.5% >>
