I am interested in finding glazes that are favorable in a C 9 /10 /11 salt
glaze enviroment, not subject to bleaching out, excessive running, etc.
Currently I am using Amber Celedon, esp. over porcelian slip; a celedon I
call "Catawba", which is actually Alfred Celedon with a higher iron
percentage, plus cobalt; an iron saturate glaze called "Frogskin"; plus an
ash glaze. My current claybody is Standard #119.
