Here are a couple of recipes for Reeve's Green taken from Clayart files.
I have not used either one.

Reeves Green ^10 R

Custer spar 75
Whiting 15
Silica 5
Kaolin (I use EPK) 5
Green Chrome Oxide 4
Bentonite 3

This is a very opaque intense green fired in ^ 10 reduction ... good
over other glazes for decorating.

Here's a slight variation on the last Reeve Green posted- it's a 500 gm
batch. It's supposed to look good over temoku.
