I had the wrong address and it bounced back, here goes again. Maggie
Kia Ora,
To all those who have assisted with information regarding
copper reds in reduction. This morning we opened the kiln and we have
beautiful copper red.
It is still a bit too warm to unload but we are both excited, Derek and
I have wanted this since I saw Dale Mark's beautiful pots in Ontario.
I left the kiln schedule to Derek this time as he is braver than I about
experimenting and must say it has worked.
The final analysis is it is all in the firing as these are the same glazes
that have given me white uninspired colours for several firings.
Sooooo thank you to all those whose posts we have been reading over the last
few months telling us just this. Especially Tom Buck and Dale Mark from whom I
was first given the information and the encouragement. Thank you Clayarters,
----Best Wishes Maggie----
