Folks,
If it has no iron and is not reduced it is not a celadon glaze.
It may be a celadon like glaze or a celadon colored glaze.
What we call a celadon is a glaze that the Chinese invented it and it
had some iron in it, not cobalt, not copper and not Mason stain.
Rant off.

Thanks, Rick! I've been following this thread hoping someone would
clarify for me what constitutes a celedon! One more question, though:
does the firing atmosphere and/or temp influence whether it is truly a
celedon?
